Just a reminder that, in order for the following configuration to work:

  RewriteCondition %m REWRITE_HOME
  RewriteRule (.*\/)?(.*) /opt/data/test/$2

You _also_ need to use "RewriteHome on" in your configuration; see:
  http://www.proftpd.org/docs/modules/mod_auth.html#RewriteHome

Hope this helps,
