WU FTP Permissions

I'm running WU FTP as my FTP Server software since it's what came with the OS and it's only a local network and I'm using Webmin to administer the server. Now what I wan't to be able to do is unlock people from being locked into their home directory so they can browse the whole filesystem and perform administrative tasks if needed. How do I do that?

Just tell the program that the FTP roots are the system roots. Webmin should be able to do that. Just be careful- allowing FTP connections to delete files and allow deletion of files is opening a potential for hackers. Pray that your firewall holds. If nothing else, let them browse with FTP and set up telnet on a network-only port for administration purposes.
