I am the security folks, and, yes, anonymous not only gives me chills, but a really bad case of gas ;-)

That's why I asked what will happen if he does NOT create one. Yes, your users default to their "home" directory. It appears that FTP forces everyone's users to default to their home directories. Why? Some people may have no use for a home directory. Question for the OP: will anonymous mode help? Or does that bring chills to the auditors and/or security folks?
