udp, etc all show up but ftp are simply awol.  I tried adding filters by setting
to ports 21 and 20, and to the particular hosts but nothing shows up.Any
suggestions?

No epiphany here, but just a few basic things you might want to check:
1) Are you sure it's unsecure, or could it be sftp?
2) Are you capturing on the right interface?
3) Do you see the ftp traffic if you capture all packets without any filters in
place?
4) Is the FTP dissector enabled? (Analyze -> Enabled protocols)
