Install FTP and Add User on Amazon EC2

Posted by: qrpike    Tags:  amazon, ec2, ftp, vsftpd    Posted date:  November 23, 2011  |  No comment



First we need to install very secure ftp demon

yum install vsftpd

Once its installed we need to add a user:

sudo adduser YOUR_USER_NAME

Now we need to create a password for this user:

sudo passwd YOUR_USER_NAME

Now we need to change the users home directory (where the FTP browser will load):

sudo usermod -d /var/www/html/ YOUR_USER_NAME

Now restart the VSFTPD:

sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd restart

All done.
