I had a similar conundrum to deal with recently -- didn't want to give
"uploaders" system accounts, and needed to make sure that they couldn't
traverse the system directory tree.

Tried to do it with ProFTPD (www.proftpd.org) but ended up going with NCFTPD
(www.ncftpd.com), which is pay-ware, but allows the setting up of virtual
ftp users very easily. These virtual user accounts can only upload to
designated system directories, and use an ncftpd authentication d/b. It
works really well, and it was definitively worth the $49 it cost.

There might be a way to do it with wu-ftpd too, but I'm not sure.
