There was talk of a pam_chroot, but i can't find actual code anywhere. The
other option is then to create a chrootsh script file, which chroots to
their homedir and execs a real shell, and make this chrootsh their login
shell.

your bash problem is probably due to it not finding the right libraries.
(the "file not found" error doesn't neccesarily refer to not finding bash).

regards,

paul.

(thomas: still love to know how you do that individual chroot thing on your
ftp server) :)
