View source for Setting up an FTP server on a Ubuntu 16.04 PC

=Accessing your server=

==In Ubuntu terminal==

You can test server accessing with different users, which you entered before to the “'''vsftpd.chroot_list'''”.<br />
You have to check your server’s IP address by running command “'''ifconfig'''”. 
Your “'''inet addr'''” is your server’s IP address. (for example '''192.168.10.10''')

You can simply access your FTP server by runing “'''ftp localhost'''” command.
For example, the user “'''test2'''” is in the “'''vsftpd.chroot_list'''” file. But user “'''test'''” is not, so login failed.

If you want to close server, just type “'''bye'''”.

==Using FileZilla==

Install FileZilla by typing “'''sudo apt-get install filezilla'''” in your Ubuntu terminal.<br />

Run Filezilla by typing “'''filezilla'''” in terminal.<br />

This window appears:

<span style="color:red">Connection tab.</span> Type in your host (eg. '''192.168.10.10'''), Username (eg. “'''test2'''”), password and press “'''Quickconnect'''” button.<br />

If connection and logging in are successful, you will see your home directory in <span style="color:#0f0">remote site window.</span><br />

At the left side you can navigate in your <span style="color:#0000FF">Local site</span>, search for files to upload.

===Uploading files to remote site===

Just simply select the file from your local site and drag it to the remote site. If upload is successful, you will see that the value of “<span style="color:#0f0">Successful transfers</span>” has changed. <br />
If not, you can see the problem in “<span style="color:red">Failed Transfers</span>” tab.
