    Default FTP Server Help

    I'm new to installing vsftpd. Normally I have cPanel but the host doesn't offer it and thought I'd try the server without it.

    I need to know how I can add users to vsftpd so that I can edit my www folder for my website. It's a VPS so I have full control over it.

    If anyone could help me I would be very thankful.

    Adding a vsftpd user is as simple as logging in to your server and issuing this command as super user:
    # useradd -m -p NEWUSERPASSWORD username
    There are other ways to do it securely, but that one is the most basic. Also, make sure that the new user has read/write access to the www folder.
