Not directly no. If your web pages are on the same filesystem as
/home/ftp you could hardlink the files, but that is quite
inconvenient IMHO.
Probably the best way is to reconfigure apache to also serve
/home/ftp as well, perhaps aliased to whatever.com/ftp
In the aliases section of httpd.conf:
Alias /ftp/ "/home/ftp"
Then put an appropriate <Directory> section. Don't ask me
though.. I'm no apache guru.. ;o) I just hack it out the hard
way any time I need to change my apache configuration (which is
very seldom).
