Sorry, I don't understand your description.

Is your user `jacek' member of the administrators group?

anonymous ftp does work in a chroot environment. If you don't duplicate
the /etc/passwd file to /home/ftp/etc/passwd, Cygwin can't determine
the user info correctly. I'm not quite sure why it may delete everything.
Does it have ownership and write access to it's own home dir?

I'm missing /etc/group. It's not that important but it sometimes
helps to analyze the situation.
