In DSL 0.8.3/0.8.4 , you can use the "add user" option from the menu.
After you have created a user, try logging into your ftpserver with
that userid/passwd.. You should be in that users $HOME directory.
That is where I'd place files I wanted access to..

From most M$ boxes, that is the only area I can get to.
From my linux box, I do have more access than just the $HOME dir.
