did you restart inetd after changing configuration file?
ps x | grep inetd
kill -HUP <process number for inetd>

check whether you're using in.ftpd or wu.ftpd or proftpd and uncomment
that line in /etc/inetd.conf
(or any other ftp daemon)

check whether you have /home/ftp directory with all subdirectories having
correct permissions if you are doing anonymous ftp. Also entries in
/etc/passwd for user ftp with correct home directory (/home/ftp ) and
/home/ftp/etc/passwd and /home/ftp/etc/group files.
(or, do you have package ftpdir installed ? )
