anonymous ftp problem with SCO TCP/IP package

[F.F. Jacot Guillarmod]

I am trying to set up an anonymous FTP account on my system and have followed
the steps laid down in section 2.10.2 of the SCO TCP/IP Administrators
Guide (Version 1.0). The following dialogue takes place:

$ftp 192.42.99.59
Connected to 192.42.99.59.
220 quagga.uucp FTP server (Version 6.1 Fri Nov 18 10:58:45 CST 1988) ready.
Name (192.42.99.59:ccfj): anonymous
331 Guest login ok, send ident as passwor.
Password:
230 Guest login ok, access restrictions apply.
ftp> dir
200 PORT command successful.
libsocket: open(/dev/socksys) failure: No such file or directory
ftp> quit
425 Can't create data socket (0.0.0.0,20): No such file or directory.
$

We are using a /u file system, and the user name has been created as /u/ftp.
Working on the assumption that, since anonymous ftp invokes a chroot, it
was unable to find any of the device 'files', I tried copying /dev/socksys
to /u/ftp/dev/socksys, but it doesn't seem to be so easy to do.

After encountering this problem, the file permissions etc were double
checked against the recommended directory set up.

Anybody have an idea of what the problem is?  And how to solve it?
(Yes, 'normal' FTP to and from quagga works just fine :-) )
