Yes see the file /etc/ftpusers. You need to remove the user ftp from 
that list. The /etc/ftpusers file specifies users that are not allowed 
to use the ftp server. YOu'll want to list users like root, bin, and 
other accounts like that. However, anonymous users are logged in as ftp, 
so that user will need to be removed from the list.
