I have a linode, at first place i use it for my personal use. Now a client approach me to have a website and i recommend Linode.
My plan is to use my existing linode for the client, but i am concern about the SFTP connection. The client will see my website files via the FTP. How can i make the client's FTP credentials will allow he to see only his website files via the SFTP?

Watch out! He'll still be able to see your website files by visiting your website...

Just get your client their own Linode.

If the client is too cheap for $20/month, that's not a client, that's a waste of time.
