Regarding FTPD and groups...

I want 'joeuser' to be able to make up to 20 connections simultaneously
and I want 'plususer' to be able to make up to 20 connections
simultaneously.

so a total of 40 connections.
I tried...

### /etc/ftpuser
plususer       allow   special
joeuser        allow

### /etc/chroot
joeuser        yes
plususer       yes

### /etc/ftpd.conf
classtype special CHROOT
umask special 000
limit special 20

umask chroot 000
limit chroot 20

In this case:
I find that 'plususer' is subject to the max connection pool 'joeuser' is in
chroot group.

What am I missing?
