Not the best choice of user name, but can you show us the output from (as root):-
Code:
# lsuser test | tr " "  "\n"         - translate space to newline
# ls -ld /home/ari/test
# grep ftpd /etc/inetd.conf
# ps -ef | grep ft[p]

Can you also show us the error messages you are getting. Please post the output in CODE tags to make it easier to read.

This will give us something to work from.

Thanks,
