manual way
The "chroot" facility wasn't included with Openssh until 4.9p1. Prior to that version of Openssh, you had to build a chroot jail manually. There are a number of steps involved to get a chroot environment configured, however, it may be easier to change your configuration or use a 3rd party tool.
Upgrading your existing version of Openssh to at least 4.9p1 would definitely simply the matter. Alternatively, there are other pieces of software that can allow sftp access to a chrooted directory. I believe one such product is sftponly.
