[Proftpd-user] Two Unix Users - 1 Account

Hi all,

    I have been using Proftpd for a number of years now and have to 
tinkering with the idea of setting up virtual accounts.

    In the short term, I need to know if there is a solution to this.

    I have Unix user on a server that has full rights to the directory in 
question, but that admins of the site do not want to  give their web 
developer the username and login.

Lets call the real owner 'owner':

excelsior# cd /home/owner
excelsior# ls -la
total 30
drwxr-xr-x    5 owner  owner   512 Jun 28  2006 ftp
drwxr-xr-x    3 owner  owner   512 May  3  2004 logs
drwxrwx---    3 owner  mail    512 Aug  6 18:15 mail
drwxr-xr-x   21 owner  owner  1024 Aug  6 15:41 www

as you can see, owner would have full read write execute privs to his home 
dir and all files below it.

Since they dont want to provide the web dev with the info, would it be 
possible to create another unix user, call him 'webdev', set his home dir to 
'/home/owner', and using directives in proftpd.conf some kind of Alias 
access so he could have read write access to the www folder, as if her were 
really 'owner' ?

TIA,

-Grant
