>Description:
The man file for ftpchroot contains a lot of very confusing options, but it omits to mention that /etc/ftpchroot can contain a second field which basically chroot's the user in the first field to the directory in the second field.

This option is mentioned in DargonFly's ftpchroot manual:

http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/cgi/web-man?command=ftpchroot&section=5

------------------------------------------------------------
EXAMPLES
[...]
     And this line will tell ftpd(8) to lock up the user ``joe'' in
     /var/spool/ftp and then to change the current directory to /joe, which is
     relative to the session's new root:

	   joe	/var/spool/ftp/./joe
[...]
------------------------------------------------------------

It looks like ftpchroot(5), ftpd(8) and ftpd.con(5) need a thorough rewrite.

See http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=3889 for a recent discussion, leading to the 'DargonFly' solution.
