Oh, one more thing: you can of course customize your pure-ftpd to go into
any directory path you like. Read the README file in
/usr/share/doc/packages/pure-ftpd for more info. I have not bothered with
that as I run an anonymous-only ftpd server on one of my machines that I
need occasionally to allow co-workers to transfer large files without
having to give them a shell. 

Best regards, Alex.
