  Applies to:
  Ubuntu 12.04 Server

  By default vsftpd is not configured to allow anonymous download..."

  A fresh install of vsftp shows this in the conf:

  # Allow anonymous FTP? (Beware - allowed by default if you comment this out).
  anonymous_enable=YES
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
