Install the FTP server
- To install the FTP server, type:
sudo aptitude install vsftpd
Configure FTP server
- The FTP server configuration is done by editing the file / etc / vsftpd.conf
- To edit this file, do:
gksu gedit /etc/vsftpd.conf
Prohibit anonymous FTP
- Change the line:
anonymous_enable=YES
- in:
anonymous_enable=NO
Allow local users to connect
- Add:
local_enable=YES
This will allow users reported in Ubuntu use the same login/password to access the FTP server.
Allow users to upload files
- Add:
write_enable=YES
Select Interface
- By default the FTP server will listen on all interfaces. If you want to restrict it only to your local network(10.0.0.x) add the line:
listen_address=10.0.0.1
- Given that the LAN IP address of your FTP server is 10.0.0.1
Start FTP server
- (Re)start the FTP server so that it takes into account the configuration we just changed.
- Type:
sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd restart
