chroot'ing would in fact, chroot users to a defined directory. It 
changes the root to a different directory, so that for example a user 
will see / in their chroot and it is actually /home/user/chroot, or 
something similar.
Generally tools like this work by setting the user's shell program to 
the program that enforces the chroot, rather than the usual /bin/bash or 
whatever shell the user usually uses. This means that generally, you can 
enable the behaviour on a per-user basis.
