It's not clear from what you are writing whether you mean JAIL(8) (a 
secure, virtual FreeBSD OS on top of host OS) or chrooted directories. 
Anyway, ssh can be set up very easily to have some chrooted sftp users.

You will probably have to think about where to place the log directory 
it if it's important to have no other logs in it.
