One way to share files on your Ubuntu computer is to install an individual FTP server. The following steps describe how to install and configure an individual FTP server-Anonymous access without the need for a user name or password:
1. Install "vsftpd" in "New ".
2. During "vsftpd" installation, it creates an empty account-"ftp" in the system ". But in file sharing, first create a folder in the home directory of the empty account. The command is as follows:
$ Sudo mkdir/home/FTP/shared \ files
$ Sudo chmod A + rwx/home/FTP/shared \ files
3. Use gedit to open the vsftpd configuration file-"/etc/vsftpd. conf", find the following line, and remove the "#" at the beginning of the line "#".
Write_enable = Yes
Anon_upload_enable = Yes
Anon_mkdir_write_enable = Yes
4. Save the file and exit gedit. Enter the following command to make the settings take effect:
$ Sudo/etc/init. d/vsftpd restart
Then, you can allow any computer to access your FTP.
