Hello shankar, thanks very much for taking the time to report this bug
and help us make Ubuntu better!
It would appear that this happened because there was already a user
named ftp, but with a group name different than 'ftp'.
This is a bug in vsftpd.postinst. It automatically assumes that the
group ftp exists.
The user should be given the option to run vsftpd as a user/group other
than ftp/ftp.
Marking as Triaged as it is ready to be worked on. Setting Importance to
Low, as most users won't already have an ftp user.
** Changed in: vsftpd (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Triaged
