Use pure FTPD and make a guest account on the linux server that can't access other's home dirs, job done.
new idea, this will probably break, but how about a public FTP?

If you want SFTP, then create a normal user with adduser and look up how to restrict the user to a home directory and you're done, SFTP can be used straight out of the box.

aah. so just add another hol user name to the system, and restrict its access to only, the public folder for example?

I believe the command you're looking for is useradd -m username

This is more what you're looking for. https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/debian-ubuntu-restricting-ssh-user-session-to-a-directory-chrooted-jail/
You can use croot to restrict a user to a home directory and they'll have SSH, and therefor SFTP.

hmmmm is the sftp usable from windows explorer? i think not. you must install swish or other sftp client.

That's why we have WinSCP.
