Thankyou. Glad you found it helpful.

You're welcome!

you control what each account can access, as seen here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZjiKMyrMm78.html just point the path to the folder that you are storing your shared files in. It will first open a root directory with your share directory in it. Thanks

Thanks for watching and great question. You can connect to an ftp and download files using chrome, but you can't upload ( edge doesn't support ftp atm and Firefox has cancelled their support). But your client can connect using any FTP client software, it doesn't need to be filezilla, there are also heaps of apps you can use on android to connect to an FTP. Hope this helps.

Turns out there is no "success" message for this on the new version. The lack of an error should indicate that your certificate was fine.

check 2:40 regarding passive mode and 5:32 for port forwarding of the passive range

@@MadAboutTutorials yeah I ended up figuring it out, I just had to open the passive port range in the windows firewall, sorry I forgot to edit the comment! 😅 Thanks again for your help, couldn’t have done it without you

Although I have no affiliation with FilleZilla, I can Help you. SFTP can be set up to offer secure file transfer, but this doesn't stop someone "hacking" in to your server, all this does is encrypts your files during the transfer process to protect against a "Man-in-the-middle" attack, it's a pretty un-likely occurrence. Unless you're a high target for commercial espionage, I wouldn't worry too much about SFTP. I would focus on having strong passwords for both the admin side and the users, enable Autoban for failed login attempts, and having a good router / firewall set up. I will be away for the next week, but I will make another video showing how to harden the security on an ftp server when I return. Thanks for watching.

@@MadAboutTutorials Thank you. Also curious, if I was making a certificate in 1.0.1, what is "Distinguished name" and "Hostname". Thanks.

@@MadAboutTutorials Further, I got a new router where I"m using the older version of the server. I've never had issues connected ftp and ftps. However, with new router, I cannot get past an error stating: 425 Can't open data connection for transfer of "/". I've spent hours going nuts. Cannot figure out why this is.

Just type in to google "what's my IP"

@@MadAboutTutorials I did, I got the address, am I supposed to put that in place of my local Ip? Which you did in in starting? The issue is even with that local address, I was able to setup everything. How do I test it if it’s working. I tried ftp://(my local ip) and then it asked for username and pw, I gave the one while setting up that user like you did but it keeps loading and in the end it won’t connect.

Yes. You need login details, even if it's just you.

The administrator password is so that you can manage your server remotly, its safe.

will do, ill try to get it done this week

@@MadAboutTutorials thanks

I found this on their website.(business.comcast.com/help-and-support/internet/comcast-business-ip-gateway-static-firewall ) follow the steps on "Port triggering", similar process to the steps in this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2XtL8E3Vwm0.html

@@MadAboutTutorials Thanks, I'm doing something wrong. I'm getting this message when I try to establish a connection "Server sent passive reply with unroutable address. Using server address instead." On Port Triggering, I have my Trigger Port(s) set to 40000~41000 and my Target port(s) to 2180~3000. The service type is TCP

@@fredrickcustard9024 Start by checking if your port forwarding rules are being applied properly by seeing if they can be accessed from outside your network by using something like dnschecker.org/port-scanner.php , then you will know which side to tackle next. If the ports show as open then you will know its your FTP server config, if they're closed, its your router. Let me know how you go.

give this video a watch to see if it helps. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JUmbtX3S1W0.html also ask your ISP if you are being protected under CG NAT, this will prevent any public port forwarding from working.

@@MadAboutTutorials yes hi im able to connect throw a window like i right ftp://localhost ip / And i can Access but can't from phone even if it's same wifi used and do i need a host to do external ftp serve?

give us some details on where you're up to, if you're connecting from inside or outside your LAN, and what the server console is saying when you try to connect, I'll do my best to help you get this sorted.

@@MadAboutTutorials 503 login error, critical error could not connect to the server HELP!!

@@Viktor-fb4gj usually caused by incorrect username, password or server address

Port forwarding is always a stumbling block for many, I've got lots of vids on this topic.if your still stuck, HMU with any questions.

Agreed.

Just check the file path is correct
