New page

My preferred ftp server is vsftpd, it is easy to configure and quite stable

yum -y install vsftpd
chkconfig --level 2345 vsftpd on

You may prefer to use a SSL connection to access the FTP so you need to perform the following:

mkdir /etc/ssl/private
openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout /etc/ssl/private/vsftpd.pem -out /etc/ssl/private/vsftpd.pem

Edit the /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf and change:

anonymous_enable=NO
chroot_local_user=YES

add at the bottom:

ssl_enable=YES
allow_anon_ssl=NO
force_local_data_ssl=YES
force_local_logins_ssl=YES

ssl_tlsv1=YES
ssl_sslv2=NO
ssl_sslv3=NO

rsa_cert_file=/etc/ssl/private/vsftpd.pem
rsa_private_key_file=/etc/ssl/private/vsftpd.pem

require_ssl_reuse=no

Create an user, like recording and set a password
To be able to use chroot, the /home/recording must be not writable, so you need to set

chmod 500 /home/recording

And create a directory inside

mkdir /home/recording/recordings
chown recording:recording /home/recording/recordings
