1# Example config file /etc/vsftpd.conf 2# 3# The default compiled in settings are fairly paranoid.

This only 25# has an effect if the above global write enable is activated. Also, you will 26# obviously need to create a directory writable by the FTP user. 27#anon_upload_enable=YES 28# 29# Uncomment this if you want the anonymous FTP user to be able to create 30# new directories. 31#anon_mkdir_write_enable=YES 32# 33# Activate directory messages - messages given to remote users when they 34# go into a certain directory. 35dirmessage_enable=YES 36# 37# Activate logging of uploads/downloads. 38xferlog_enable=YES 39# 40# Make sure PORT transfer connections originate from port 20 (ftp-data). 41connect_from_port_20=YES 42# 43# If you want, you can arrange for uploaded anonymous files to be owned by 44# a different user.
