Could you show the output of the following command:
$ ls -ald /var/ftp/pub

This will show us what the permissions of /var/ftp/pub are, and who owns it.

Did you have to change the firewall at all? When I installed vsftpd on FC1, 
I had to run the following command to get everything to work through 
iptables:

# insmod ip_conntrack_ftp

What does /var/log/messages say when you try to ls?
