if [ -x /usr/local/sbin ]; then \
install -m 755 vsftpd /usr/local/sbin/vsftpd; \
else \
install -m 755 vsftpd /usr/sbin/vsftpd; fi
if [ -x /usr/local/man ]; then \
install -m 644 vsftpd.8 /usr/local/man/man8/vsftpd.8; \
install -m 644 vsftpd.conf.5 /usr/local/man/man5/vsftpd.conf.5; \
elif [ -x /usr/share/man ]; then \
install -m 644 vsftpd.8 /usr/share/man/man8/vsftpd.8; \
install -m 644 vsftpd.conf.5 /usr/share/man/man5/vsftpd.conf.5; \
else \
install -m 644 vsftpd.8 /usr/man/man8/vsftpd.8; \
install -m 644 vsftpd.conf.5 /usr/man/man5/vsftpd.conf.5; fi
if [ -x /etc/xinetd.d ]; then \
install -m 644 xinetd.d/vsftpd /etc/xinetd.d/vsftpd; fi

Actually it is installing. I just installed it twice today on two RedHat 9 machines.
It is only echoing the install for whatever reason.
The install put the file 'vsftpd' in /usr/local/sbin.
It does NOT put the .conf file in /etc, so you will need to do that manually.
If you have an older version of vsftpd in /usr/sbin, you will need to copy the new one in its place.
Make sure to read the INSTALL directions to make sure you do all the other prerequisites, like creating the user 'nobody', setting appropriate rights on /var/ftp, etc.

There are no errors in the output from your make install to indicate that your install was not successful. What indication do you have that it was not installed? Execute the command whereis vsftpd and you should find vsftpd in directory /usr/local/sbin or /usr/sbin. If you do find it then you will need to set up vsftpd to run as either a standalone daemon or as a service in inetd or xinetd. Once we get it up and running there will probably be a little tweaking of your /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf file to get things just right.
