It's true that roxen's design prevents chrooting ftp if you are running a non chrooted web server on the same system. However, it's silly to be running a non-chrooted web server if you want a chrooted ftp server. And, with a little work, roxen could support running chrooted. [And it would be reasonable to lose the ability to reconfigure it at run time from the administrative web interface -- that's probably good from a security standpoint. The other option, putting the config file in the chrooted area, is also viable but would be less secure.] -- Raul
