yes, with or without /data it is the same location, don't worry :-)

Uhmm... i am afraid for some reason the GenericVO is not offering gridftp as 
a new service to be added... only GT2 Gram is there besides gLite services, 
not sure why though, will look.
In a full featured grid installation you would automatically find the grid 
services through the information service (MDS in Globus, BDII in gLite, 
etc) so there is no need to add services by hand. 
Isn't your gridFTP server part of some grid infrastructure?
(BTW, in the service URI something like  
    gsiftp://<FTP_server_FQDN>:2811/data/ftp
is expected, but if the servicetype is wrong it won't work anyways)

Cheers, Ariel
