vsFtpd question



hi all,

i've recently got rid of WU and moved to vsftpd. i was wondering is someone
could help me with the following challenge:

user: media
/home/media

essentially i have this situation in /home/media/:
lrwxrwxrwx    1 media    media          29 Sep 30 12:59 music ->
/mnt/uber/media/music/albums/

/mnt/uber is a 120gig USB attached device.

now if i run vsftpd without  chroot_local_user=YES, then i can cd music when
in media's home dir, and I essentially get cd'd to /mnt/uber...
but i can also branch out of anywhere that my media
user can - which is not great! is there another approach i should be using
to allow the media user to cd into that music symlink, but nowhere else?
I've often seen other linking mechanisms on large ftp sites - maybe
something like that?

cheers
mike
