Then, create your users with the following command: useradd -s /sbin/nologin -d /BACKUP_LOCATION USERNAME

Yes, you don't need to compile what are already compiled. Installation of proftpd is easy as well.

You can install vsftpd using yum and then create a ftp user and password 1. yum install vsftpd 2. useradd -s /sbin/nologin -d /LOCATION USERNAME 3. passwd USERNAME

Go to vsftpd download site and scroll down to download the latest version of the vsftpd. Or use wget to download it directly on your server. # wget ftp://vsftpd.beasts.org/users/cevans...d-2.3.2.tar.gz Compile the vsftpd source # tar xvfz vsftpd-2.3.2.tar.gz # cd vsftpd-2.3.2 # make After the make command executes successfully, you’ll see vsftpd file getting created in the current directory. # ls -l vsftpd
