Hi, i've rocky linux after install vsftpd, set user and password (for this user nologin for gui or ssh) I can't access the ftp area with the user created, and I've followed a lot of guides, and I'm trying again by watching your video and I see that you can access right away 5:00

Hi! Do you know if VSFTP does have graphical interface, or can you recommend a ftp program who have graphical interface and the posibility to know who and when the files was downloaded, maybe a log file or something like this? Thank you for sharing!

If you're interested in using a GUI for file transfers, you may want to look into Filezilla or Cyberduck to see if one of those meets your needs. You can find guides for both in our File Transfer documentation: www.linode.com/docs/guides/tools-reference/file-transfer/

If you use open suse it has one

@@cactusnetworkThanks for info! Please, can you name it? I am not using OpenSuse, but I can try to see if it meets the requirements. All I want is simple file sharing like Google Drive, hosted to my home, with the ability to restrict access to files per user and see who, what and when files were downloaded. I've tried many programs, Pydio, OMV, Nextcloud, Owncloud but none of them are simple. Ultimately I was thinking of a website made in Wordpress with the above possibilities. All the best!!

Can you tell why set FTPD server there are several known exploits to the ftpd server, i.e Vulnerability Can expose to attacks, another one let users copy files without permission, and allows remote attackers to prevent legimate user to connect to the server ,by exeeding the connection limit. Metasploit ex: ftpd_2.3.4 : Can you make a video about the safety on ftpd is it really safe to actually use. .that specific server has known vulnerabilities.
