And you set the ftp user jailed directory to the appropriate
sites/mysite/files/ftp directory and then server the files from there.
 You may want to put the files into a different directory then create
a cron process to create a node and move the files to an appropriate
sites/mysite/files directory and store the location in a field in the
node.
