I could not get vsftpd to start; kept getting the "vsftpd Dead Subsys

the site unfortunately) and as I recall, it has something to do with
copying a file and having the incorrect SElinux settings (I have
SElinux disabled).

The fix was to do a fixfiles, relabel (commands that I have never
used) or a touch of "/.autorelabel" and rebooting.

It worked, but I have no idea of what I did (my lack of in depth
knowledge of Linux).
    

/etc/rc.sysinit checks for the presence of /.autorelabel on startup, and
if found it relabels all the files in the filesystem with their default
SELinux file context as per the current policy. Obviously you didn't
disable SELinux as effectively as you thought...
