My vsftpd configuration has the key and cert both in "rsa_private_key_file" and 
the cert again in "rsa_cert_file". That is the only way that I could make it 
work. 

So FTP clients will require "ssl_ciphers=" be set in the vsftpd.conf. I'm using 
"ssl_ciphers=HIGH"

I used strace to figure this out.  (strace -f -s200 vsftpd)

It looks like you need to have either the certificate and private key in one 
file, or you have to point to both files:
rsa_cert_file=/path/to/rsacert.pem
rsa_private_key_file=/path/to/rsakey.pem
