^ I was following the FTP section verbatim in the guide I posted, so...

Ok then you are talking about 2 different things..... Are you talking about proftpd or SFTP? They are not the same thing and should not be substituted for each other.

I was just following the directions from the guide I posted verbatim.

I don't know why that just posted twice. Anyway, I've been using SFTP. I guess I wasn't paying to close of attention, then. So, what do I need to do? Thanks!

Like I said previously. I don't think you can use SFTP with /bin/false. I am pretty sure that if you change the shell to something other than /bin/false that SFTP should work.

Keep in mind that FTP, and FTPS are different than SFTP. SFTP is a subsystem of SSH and therefore has to follow the rules of SSH.

What that guide appears to be trying to do is to setup FTP users not SFTP users.

Great, I'm getting somewhere! Yay! So, what should I change bin/false to? Maybe I should remove it completely?

You should change it to an appropriate shell. /bin/bash etc...

Then, using sftp, what file would I edit to jail the users in their home directory I created? Thanks!

I have not done SFTP chroot on your linux distribution. http://www.dkpw.co.uk/wp/?p=3428 appears to give solid information on this topic.

I have only done SFTP chroot on RHEL and equivalent systems so hopefully this link will work for you.
