Well as far as I have made it, it is possible to share a directory by  
using a "per user" config option. It is geting hte different  
permissions I am having to deal with. Part of me thinks this would be  
easier using a real system account so I can restrict permissions using  
tools like chmod, etc. But I hate the idea of using system accounts  
for FTP.
