FTP over SSL setup

[TDD]

Hello Guys!

We all must be aware of using SFTP ( need to enable SSH for cpanel account) on cpanel server and also FTP over TLS.

However anyone aware of how to setup FTP over SSL (FTPs) on a cPanel server or can anyone point me to right direction ?

Thanks

My pureftp was ready to accept secure connections by default. The only thing to do was to put trusted certificate to pure-ftpd.pem file at /etc/ssl/private. Be sure to include all certificate chain into that file and restart pureftpd.

Ahh, so you didn't do any custom settings on your server?

In my case pureftp port 21 is saying this:-

Command: AUTH SSL
Response: 500 This security scheme is not implemented

And at port 990, its doesn't connect at all! (csf firewall stopped)

Be sure to configure your FTP client to use FTP over TLS.

Or use sftp, which uses ssh.

Or use sftp, which uses ssh.

But I belive in this case user must have shell access?
