Which is better, a ftp://youripaddress type FTP or a ftp://yourdomian.com type FTP? And if a ftp://yourdomian.com type is better, how do you make a domain/website in Linux?

How do I lock the user so he cannot go back to the www or var directory, and even the core? For the user to be able to send files and delete file, what do I have to do?

In reply to Priynkara. @Priynkara, Have you restarted vsftpd after making configuration? if not do:

$ sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd

If you still gets the same error, another important thing to verify that the user shell present in /etc/shells? Could you share your vsftpd configuration here?
