Hi Guys,

I have just created a anonymous ftp server but when I try to ftp to my
server I get the following error:

# ftp localhost
Connected to localhost.
220 station5 FTP server ready.
Name (localhost:simran): anonymous
331 Guest login ok, send your complete e-mail address as password.
Password:
550 Can't set guest privileges.
Login failed.

The following are what my file permissions look like:

drwxr-xr-x 8 root other 512 Apr 6 13:44 anonymous <-----
/export/home/anonymous
Under that dir.:
d--x--x--x 2 root other 512 Apr 6 13:50 bin
drwxr-xr-x 2 root other 512 Apr 6 14:00 dev
d--x--x--x 2 root other 512 Apr 6 13:48 etc
drwxr-xr-x 2 root other 512 Apr 6 13:44 opt
drwxrwxrwx 2 root other 512 Apr 6 13:44 pub
drwxr-xr-x 3 root other 512 Apr 6 14:04 usr

Is there something I am missing? I tried searching everywhere but can't
seem to find the reason for this error. How can I try and fix this?
 Any suggestions or comment would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Simran H.
