This doesn't indicate that you were cracked if it was anonymous FTP.
You may have been scanned for open ports, and it appears that they took advantage of your FTP being open.
Set up logging via the inetd.conf line (man ftpd for options). Then you can at least use ipf or ipfw to ban the domains that were
involved.
