For IIS 5, you can create virtual directory and redirect user to their own
folder.
configure with STRONG NTFS permissions, you should be able to restrict

How To Set Up an FTP Site So That Users Log Onto Their Folders
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=201771 note: the kb uses physical directory, you can configure the respective
permission on the physical folder, however you create a virtual directory
(by default hidden) and mapped it to the web path.
e.g.
ftproot -> e:\ftpfake
webroot> f:\websites\site1
site2
ftp virtual directory - say site1 owner is 'ali', you create a virtual
directory
ftp vir dir 'ali' -> f:\websites\site1
