vsftpd setup for multiple users

I am fairly new to linux and I am using SUSE 9.1 I want to configure vsftpd to allow local users to login remotely and have their public_html directory be the only directory accessable to them.  I have tried changing the vsftpd.conf, but I think I'm not understanding some of the terminology.  I can't seem to get vsftpd to be anything other than an anonomyous server.

 change the VSFTP configuration to allow local user logins. To do this, edit the file /etc/vsftpd.conf and uncomment the line "local_enable=YES".
And add user locally
