I guess I'm not sure what ftp i'm using.  We have a linux red-hat server. 
 I need to be able to let people upload and download files.  I thought you 
could just set up ftp by adding user ftp.. There's already an ftp user and 
all of the directories needed, plus it looks like the previous network 
admin person had it set up for something because there are a few files 
there already.  I'm not sure why he did that- but I don't want to delete it 
out because I'm sure its probably for a program we have running here.  But, 
I still need to be able to set up an ftp directory, also.  :-\

That depends on the ftpd you're using.

For proftpd:
 <Directory ~ftp/incoming>
        <Limit READ WRITE>
        DenyAll
        </Limit>
        <Limit STOR>
        AllowAll
        </Limit>
</Directory>

This sets up the directory ~ftp/incoming to give anyone the ability to
upload stuff. They can also get file listings. But they will not be able to
download anything. By changing the limits you should be able to get the
configuration you're looking for. If you're using wu-ftpd or some other
ftpd, I don't know. :)
