Disable create subdirectory Solaris 8 ftp

Running Solaris 10. For FTP users or groups, I want to prevent them from creating new subdirectories, but I still want to allow them to create, upload, download files from the subdirs.

I understand how to set the general file/directory permissions -- read, write, execute. So for a directory, I'm looking for a way to set the permissions as execute, so that the user can access the dir, and read/write files in the dir, but is not allowed to create directories within the dir.

Thanks for the help!

NAME
ftp - FTP client configuration file SYNOPSIS
/etc/default/ftp DESCRIPTION
Use the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment lines and are ignored. Behavior Directives The ftp file supports the following behavior directives: FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send LIST instead. In order to make the Solaris ftp client send LIST when the ls command is issued, set FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes by default. If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that is specified in /etc/default/ftp. ATTRIBUTES
