Hi @lifesound
Did you setup your Droplet with keys or did you get a root password?
You don’t need to install anything or setup anything, since SFTP is supported by SSH, which is installed by default on your Droplet.
As long as you can connect thru SSH to your server, then you can SFTP. Unless you’ve changed the configuration of /etc/ssh/sshd_config.
And to create new users, have a look in this tutorial: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-add-and-delete-users-on-ubuntu-16-04
SFTP uses port 22, not port 21.
For anyone facing problems , go directly to Filezilla
@hansen thx it worked with ssh key through filezilla
filezilla is awesome as you
thx for help
Filezela Error: Disconnected: No supported authentication methods available (server sent: publickey) Error: Could not connect to server
thx @hansen
i connected both ways , neither worked !
root user , other user with ssh and with password .
root ‘/’
this is the netstat for port 22
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:22 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 1308/sshd
whats wrong …
root@fg:~# cat ~/.ssh/sshd_config Host * ServerAliveInterval 15
yes Im using 22
