As far as I remember the original poster was mentioning wu-ftpd?
You can achieve what you want with wu-ftpd, but it takes some
setup. You need to setup a pseudo-anonymous hierarchy as you
would do for the anonymous user and then create a group of
users (in /etc/group) that should be restricted. Specify
this group with the "guestgroup" command in wu-ftpd's
ftpaccess file.

You really should read the manpage for ftpaccess and
search for "guestgroup" andd you will get all the info
you need.

If you still can't make it work send me private e-mail and
we'll make it work together :)
