Alibaba Cloud server uses FTP to transfer files
1. Update source
I use Ali cloud ECS is Ubuntu18, I see his default update source, it seems, Ali site, but I do not know why not download ftp
then simply a matter, once again update source, the first of its backup
sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.bak
Then sources.listmodify it to the following
deb http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic-proposed main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic-backports main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic-proposed main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic-backports main restricted universe multiverse
Use the command to update after the modification
sudo apt-get update
Two, ubuntu18 install FTP service
Then install the FTP service:
sudo apt-get install vsftpd
After the installation is complete, use vi to open /etc/vsftpd.conf for configuration. The command is as follows:
sudo vi /etc/vsftpd.conf
After opening the vsftpd.conf file, find the following two lines:
local_enable=YES
write_enable=YES
Make sure that there is no "#" in front of the above two lines, if there is, cancel it. After completion, as shown in the figure:
after modifying vsftpd.conf, save and exit, use the following command to restart the FTP service:
sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd restart
3. Set up the Alibaba Cloud ECS security group
Because the Alibaba Cloud server has default security group protection, we need to release the ports that FTP needs to use.
Enter the Alibaba Cloud console, click [More]-> [Network and Security Group]-> [Security Group Configuration]
and then select [Add Security Group Configuration] to
add ports 20 and 21 to the security group, allow access, be sure to save
Four, FTP connection
Then we open [FileZilla], click to open the site manager:
select [SFTP] protocol, enter Alibaba Cloud ’s public IP address, then the username and password,
click [Connect] to connect
