IF a new employee comes in, how do you add that employee to server B? The same method is what you use for the sftp_account user. You specify a home directory when you create a new user. On linux the passwd/usermod command when run by the root or a suitable account with full passwd access, can be used to change the users home directory.
It may be be that
Code:
[ sudo ] usermod -d
is what you want to use. If you already have sftp_account as active.
I don't think your linux is so old it uses passwd for this
What precisely is server B? Please post the output of uname -a

I've just started using a Solaris machine with SunOS 5.10.
After the machine is turned on, I open a Console window and at the prompt, if I execute a pwd command, it tells me I'm at my home directory (someone configured "myuser" as default user after init).

ftp_ssl_connect
FTP_SSL_CONNECT(3) 1 FTP_SSL_CONNECT(3)ftp_ssl_connect - Opens an Secure SSL-FTP connectionSYNOPSIS
resource ftp_ssl_connect (string $host, [int $port = 21], [int $timeout = 90])
DESCRIPTION ftp_ssl_connect(3) opens an explicit SSL-FTP connection to the specified $host.
Note
Why this function may not exist
ftp_ssl_connect(3) is only available if both the ftp module and the OpenSSL support is built statically into php, this means that on
Windows this function will be undefined in the official PHP builds. To make this function available on Windows you must compile your
own PHP binaries.
Note
ftp_ssl_connect(3) is not intended for use with sFTP. To use sFTP with PHP, please see ssh2_sftp(3).
PARAMETERS
o $host
- The FTP server address. This parameter shouldn't have any trailing slashes and shouldn't be prefixed with ftp://.
o $port
- This parameter specifies an alternate port to connect to. If it is omitted or set to zero, then the default FTP port, 21, will
be used.
o $timeout
- This parameter specifies the timeout for all subsequent network operations. If omitted, the default value is 90 seconds. The
timeout can be changed and queried at any time with ftp_set_option(3) and ftp_get_option(3).
RETURN VALUES
Returns a SSL-FTP stream on success or FALSE on error.
