NAME

4     vsftpd — Very Secure FTP Daemon

SYNOPSIS

7     vsftpd [configuration file]

DESCRIPTION

10     vsftpd is the Very Secure File Transfer Protocol Daemon. The server can
11     be launched via a “super-server” such as inetd(8) or xinetd(8).  Alterna‐
12     tively, vsftpd can be launched in standalone mode, in which case vsftpd
13     itself will listen on the network. This latter mode is easier to use, and
14     recommended. It is activated by setting listen=YES in
15     /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf.  Direct execution of the vsftpd binary will then
16     launch the FTP service ready for immediate client connections.
