Q&A
1

Hi,

I would like to create FTP server which can be used to share files between ios and Linux, I am using FE file explorer in the ios/ipad OS for now.

can someone provide me step by step guide to setup FTP server on Clear Linux ?

I tried to enable ssh service but do not know how to utilize it ? and how to set it up ?
I also tried to install filezilla, filezilla ftp will also work for me.

thank you :slight_smile:

I would recommend sftp (can access with filezilla or just mount on your ios system)

Very simple and far more secure by default:

echo "subsystem sftp /usr/libexec/sftp-server"|sudo tee -a /etc/ssh/sshd_config

sudo systemctl restart sshd

I will also try your way for sftp, thank you @inmanturbo
