[Proftpd-user] Setting Up Anonymous ftp

I have installed proftpd on CentOS 7 and want to set up anonymous ftp. 
The daemon seems to be running but when I try to connect the client 
hangs after the password prompt. What I cannot find is precisely what 
the directory structure and ownership should be. I think that is the 
problem. I am using the default conf file with the exception:

  # Put the user into /pub right after login
     DefaultChdir                /var/ftp/pub

I added the anonymous option to sysconfig/proftpd. I see that the daemon 
is running as 'nobody' but my directory looks like this:

$ sudo ls -lR /var/ftp
/var/ftp:
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Mar 31 14:28 pub

/var/ftp/pub:
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 2 ftp ftp 4096 Mar 28 15:19 uploads

/var/ftp/pub/uploads:
total 0

I am not running Selinux so that should not be a factor. Can someone 
help me configure this? TIA.
