all i can do now is compare my settings to yours and see whats different.
I enabled the guest account
my guest user (renamed to ftp) looks like this in /etc/passwd

ftp:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:501:513:U-JHARY\Guest,S-1-5-21-1417001333-413027322
-725345543-501:/home/ftp:/bin/false

only real difference being the shell, which i have set to false as a
security measure (stops people getting in by telnet/ssh/etc as guest/ftp)

ls -l /home  gives 
drwxr-xr-x+   5 Vince.Ho Administ        0 Mar 20 18:27 ftp/

the relevant bit in my inetd.conf is 
ftp     stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/in.ftpd in.ftpd 

if none of this helps, check that your mounts are system mounts. 
umm thats all i can think of.
