Add a user through FTP in Linux

If the FTP service is not installed, install vsftpd: Yum install vsftpd first.

 

Add a User Username

Useradd-D/home/SEA/-M Username

The user's FTP root directory is/home/sea. The-M parameter allows the system to create this directory for you.

 

Then add the password

Passwd Username

Enter Password

Enter password again

 

After the user is added, the user is added to/etc/passwd, And the last row is added.

 

To enable this user to use the FTP service, an important step is required to add the User username to/etc/vsftpd/user_list.

If you do not want this user to use ftp, you need to add it to the blacklist to add username to/etc/vsftpd/ftpusers.

 

After the above steps, you can access the client via telnet or using FTP software.
