I tried to make a anonymous FTP server on my PC. So I did it:
https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/ftp-server.html

I could connect to my FTP server anonymously now. So I can read, write files. But I cannot delete file as anonymous.

Is there any guide to run perfect anonymous FTP server?

Try asking in the server forums, you'll probably have better luck.

Change the file permission.

Generally speaking anonymous/guest users aren't allowed to add and delete files, anonymous ftp is usually just file serving method. Adding and removing files is normally done via other methods such as scp/ssh/sftp from an authorized user/admin.

Hai this is my first post! sorry for my bad in english :).
I think you can try vsftpd. You can setup a ftp server with a man vsftpd or man vsftpd.conf

Oh and you must uncoment #write_enable=YES so it become #write_enable=YES and add this option
anon_other_write_enable=YES to enable allow anonymous user to burn your files.
