How do I install Ubuntu ftp service or server?
A. Ubuntu Linux comes with various ftp servers to setup FTP service such as: => proftpd – Versatile, virtual-hosting FTP daemon => vsftpd – The Very Secure FTP Daemon => ftpd – FTP server => wu-ftpd – powerful and widely used FTP server => wzdftpd – A portable, modular, small and efficient ftp server => pure-ftpd – Pure-FTPd FTP server I recommend using vsftpd. It is simple and quite secure FTP server. According to vsftpd man page: vsftpd is the Very Secure File Transfer Protocol Daemon. The server can be launched via a super-server such as inetd or xinetd. Alternatively, vsftpd can be launched in standalone mode, in which case vsftpd itself will listen on the network.
