A cursory review of the comments in the vsFTPd articles on DigitalOcean will show that A LOT of people struggle with its configuration (for some reason). Have you considered SFTP? IMHO, it’s just as secure and <b>much</b> easier to use. <i>See</i> <a href=“https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-use-filezilla-to-transfer-and-manage-files-securely-on-your-vps”>How To Use Filezilla to Transfer and Manage Files Securely on your VPS</a>.
