Set NTFS permissions on the folders to allow only those accounts that
should have access.

I've a server with windows 2000 server and if i configure two ftp
user:
user1
and
user2

and their respective folder

c:/ftpfolder/user1
and
c:/ftpfolder/user2

when the user1 login correctly view its folder but he can view also
all the other subfolders in c:/ftpfolder even if he can't access the
other folder.

Can i disable the user2 viewing the other folder different from it's
own ?

Use virtual directory to 'hide' the user folders.
Then secure the access via NTFS.

All right but i must give user1 and user2 permission of read in the
root directory (ftpfolder) otherwise the users cannot log in the sub
folder (user1 and user2).

Ftp client says (cannot login in the root folder).

Yes, they need read only at the root. but since users' folder are virtual
directories, it will not be visible to users.
There's no work around on this. users will be able to 'cd ..' to the root.
