Quick way to configure FTP server

2.    Start the service using service command.

[root@kalwa1 ~]# service vsftpd start
Starting vsftpd for vsftpd:                                [  OK  ]
[root@kalwa1 ~]#

3.    To start the service after reboot fire chkconfig .

[root@kalwa1 ~]# chkconfig vsftpd on

4.    To enable the access for the root user remove the root user entry in the below two files:

•    /etc/vsftpd/ftpusers
•    /etc/vsftpd/user_list
Because FTP access performs in opposite way the users mentioned in the above two files do not have FTP access!!!!

After this start using ftp services!!!! That’s it.
