Based upon my experimentation the ftp share is the same as the normal share.
The snaps ftp server however does not work like convention ftp servers. There seems to be an odd concept of root

Create share ftp\user1 and give access to user1
user1 ftp's and gets this
\
\user1
I would anticipate only \ bing the user1 folder

Create anther share for root ftp and user1 sees this
\
\ftp
\user1
I would anticipate \ with a subdirectory of user1

Strange and dangerous behavior. With the only option under the ftp server being "allow anonymous ftp".... I'm not using it.
