In this guide, we will go over the step by step instructions to install vsftpd on Ubuntu.
A very popular and highly configurable FTP server package is vsftpd, available for many Linux systems, including Ubuntu. You can even use default GUI and command line tools as an FTP client. On Ubuntu Linux, there are a multitude of different FTP server and client software packages available. It’s also possible to configure anonymous authorization, which means that users will not need their own account in order to connect to the FTP server. The clients can access a remote directory with their user account, and then download or upload files there, depending on the permissions that have been granted to them. It works by having a server that is listening for connections (on port 21 by default) from clients.
Using FTP proves to be a pretty basic task after it has been setup properly.
FTP stands for “File Transfer Protocol” and is a great protocol for downloading files from a remote or local server, or uploading files onto the server.
