Odd; I had no trouble at all. Just to see, I took a fresh FC1 install
and did the following:
yum install vsftpd
vi /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf
enable anon_upload_enable and anon_mkdir_write_enable
mkdir /var/ftp/pub/incoming
chown ftp.ftp !$
service vsftpd start
Takes about 30 seconds. To check it out, from another machine:
>lftp hurl
lftp hurl:~> ls
drwxr-xr-x 3 0 0 4096 May 13 03:40 pub
lftp hurl:/> cd pub/incoming/
cd ok, cwd=/pub/incoming
lftp hurl:/pub/incoming> mkdir blah
mkdir ok, `blah' created
lftp hurl:/pub/incoming> ls
drwx------ 2 14 50 4096 May 13 03:42 blah
lftp hurl:/pub/incoming> cd blah
cd ok, cwd=/pub/incoming/blah
lftp hurl:/pub/incoming/blah> ls
lftp hurl:/pub/incoming/blah> put file
110211 bytes transferred
lftp hurl:/pub/incoming/blah> ls
-rw------- 1 14 50 110211 May 13 03:41 file
So files can be uploaded and the anonymous user can make directories.
