I have a vps for a few projects but since my primary download source is cracking down on accessing download sites im wanting to use it for downloads. It has PLENTY of bandwidth so yah... Anyway I know I will need a ftp program to do this but im somewhat confused as to how to set up the ftp on the vps server. Downloading the files to the vps is no issue, hell, I've already got some stuff downloaded that i need to transfer over. Its running centOS (A linux distro)
Its using SolarusVM control panel. Not sure exactly how to set it up from that. Could I use putty to set it up instead?
How can i check to see if ftp is already set up? And if i have to set it up, how do I set it up from SolarusVM control panel?
If ftp isn't set up, you can make do with a web hosting system to copy your file into the /www/ directory (if you're using lighttpd or w/e). Then in any web browser you can go "http://serverip/filename". FTP is much better for this kind of thing, though.
