The ftpserver.py example uses twisted.protocols.ftp.FTPRealm, which
returns an FTPAnonymousShell instance wrapped around the given path
for anonymous users, and an FTPShell instance wrapped around
/home/username for authenticated users. FTPAnonymousShell does not
allow anything other than read-only access, and /home/yourselecteduser
possibly doesn't even exist on your system. You probably want to write
your own realm implementation that does things a little differently;
you can look at the implementation of FTPRealm to get started, it
isn't very complicated.
