1. FTP Server

1. 1 vsftpd Install

1.2 vsftpd configuration

①Save vsftpd.conf with .bak

Edit configuration file

➂Add users to allow directory access to upper level
In my case I wrote huong.

④Specify IP addresses to allow connections in /etc/hosts.allow
192.168.11.0/24 is the setting that allows all local IP addresses in my environment.

⑤Write vsftpd:ALL (deny all connections) in /etc/hosts.deny

This setting overrides hosts.allow. That is, everything is denied, and IP addresses specified in hosts.allow are allowed.

⑥Enable vsftpd autostart and start it

⑦Now, from windows side, check if you can connect with FileZilla.
Open the ftp port with firewall before connecting

Start FileZilla and select "Site Manager" from the "File" menu.

Click on "New site"
Enter the following settings for each item and click "Connect"
Protocol : FTP-File Transfer Protocol
Host : Server IP Address
Port : (blank.)
Logon Type : Ask for password
User  : General user name (server login user)

Password : General user (server login user) password

If the connection is successful, the server directory is displayed on the right and the Windows directory on the left.
