I'm having trouble configuring proftpd to allow a system user access to /var/www/ on a centos box.
proftpd.conf
ServerName "ProFTPD server"
ServerIdent on "FTP Server ready."
ServerAdmin root@localhost
ServerType standalone
DefaultServer on
VRootEngine on
#DefaultRoot ~ !adm
DefaultRoot /var/www/
VRootAlias /etc/security/pam_env.conf etc/security/pam_env.conf
AuthPAMConfig proftpd
AuthOrder mod_auth_pam.c* mod_auth_unix.c
#PersistentPasswd off
UseReverseDNS off
User nobody

LogFormat default "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %s %b"
LogFormat auth "%v [%P] %h %t \"%r\" %s"

I've created a system user 'ftpuser' with thier home dir as /var/www/ and a valid shell. I can ssh in as this user and view the correct directories etc.
However when I try to use an ftp client to connect or even connect to localhost from a shell I get errors:

Does anyone know what is happening here & how to fix it?
