Is the file you are trying to ftp present?

or the same file is in use by some other process?
(check with fuser -u yourfile

See if you have a file named either etc/ftpd/pids/everyone
or /etc/ftpd/pids/remote

If not, you may need to create it. Reference TKB document KBRC00007557 ( http://www2.itrc.hp.com/service/cki/docDisplay.do?docLocale=en_US&docId=200000062908729 ) for some general information.
