What is the exact version string reported on the greeting when you log
into the server?

Assuming you're running a VR version:

There's a feature (CLOSED_VIRTUAL_SERVER), enabled by default, which
prevents anyone except anonymous and certain guest users to log into a
virtual server. Only guests whose home directory is the same as the root
for the virtual server are allowed.

The VR version includes a new ftpaccess phrase for the 'virtual' clause
which allows you to deny anonymous access. It also has another phrase
which allowed you to specify which real/guest users are allowed on the
virtual server, in addition to the guests allowed by default. These are
all covered in the manpage for ftpaccess.
