Thank you for your replies.

[jerka@pils ~]$ su
Heslo: 
[root@pils jerka]# su ftp -c "/usr/sbin/bftpd -D" -s /bin/bash
You must change your password immedeatly (need by rootem)
Change password for ftp.

Re: Bftpd running under root

u can chroot it, or just leave it be, i dont have any ideas how you might use port 21 w/o root privilegies.
