Enabled limited anonymous ftp access on viking. Edited /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf- anonymous_enable from NO to YES
Anonymous FTP user is xftp, anon_root is /home/xftp/pub/
This anon root was a directory containing a symlink to /data1/ I removed the symlink to /data1 and replaced the directory /home/xftp/pub/ with a symlink to /srv/ftp/
ZA: changed the directory group ownership from root to 3sdw and changed the directory permissions to group writable

Disabled anonymous FTP. Edited /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf to change the line:anonymous_enable=YES
to
anonymous_enable=NO
Followed by a reboot. Users can still log in with their local credentials for viking.
