yes.
Please post your configuration file here, plus the output of...
id ftp
ps -ef | grep [v]sftpd
ls -la /home/ftp
Without that information we are just guessing.
Anonymous users should be chrooted into the home directory of the 'ftp'
user.
for more information you can also set these parameters
dual_log_enable=YES
log_ftp_protocol=YES
and restart the service. Then show us your logs.
