useradd "username"
passwd "username" (add or change password)

No, just do as enaille said and try to log in with that username/password.
Make sure your vstpd is running:

As root:
$ chkconfig --level 5 vsfptd on
$ services vsfptd start

But this is the system user account,isn't is? or that the same way the ftp account is created?
