How to work with FTP on FileStore ?

This issue has been solved. See solution.
Hello,
I've installed a four node Symantec FileStore 5.5 SP1 HF1 and i can't use FTP with my domain account. I work with CIFS and NFS normally, but i can't use FTP with the same account CIFS.
So, i want to know if i can configure FTP service with autentification (localy or AD) to allow FTP upload or downlod on the same share of CIFS.
Maybe i need to create a new directory structure or use the same ? Maybe i need to use home-directory ?
Thank you for your replies.

Hello Loic, By default, the
Hello Loic,
By default, the FTP service is not started but you can start the FTP server using the
FTP> server start command.
The FTP server starts on the standard FTP port 21. For details, ref to Chap 10 "Using FTP" section of Symantec™ FileStore Command-Line Administrator's Guide.
I think the FTP server either allows anonymous or local user access. I don't think it supports NT Domain and AD Domain users like CIFS server.
Thanks,

As per FileStore 5.6
As per FileStore 5.6 command-line admin guide, FileStore 5.6 allows to create local ftp users and home dir.
