I'm not sure if FTP can do this unless you have individual IPs for each
login.
Why not serve the files http? Then you could do it easily.

Sure it can Dan, haven't you ever built a site, and just made them
members?  PROFTPD uses a command to bind them to their home directory.

DefaultRoot                     ~ !site-adm

That says, who ever is not in the site-adm group, be bound to ~ which is
the home directory!

Piece of cake to do, if the Qube is not set the same way.
