Apps :: betaftpd (newbie)

Hi all, I did try searching but could not find an answer. I can find some reference to betaftpd.users file, but cannot find how to make this actually work. Can somebody give me a simple blow by blow.

The objective is to set up a simple secure ftp server. Only authorised users can login - cannot then cd all over the box.

As this is the reason I am looking at DSL it is quite important.

Thanks ET

Your best bet is to use apt-get to replace betaftp with a "real" ftpd server that is more configurable, especially when it comes to security.
