It's ironic since I can login to all my accounts via FTP (I have 5 account for various functions) except for this ANONYMOUS account that is supposedly designed for that very purpose.

In order to "login", you would need local +/or remote.  With the network only access, the account is usable for FTP communications between the FTP client and server.  No interactive access should be allowed other than the entry of FTP commands into the client.

I even tried setting local and remote. I still could not login.

But I mean that I cannot connect with ftp.
