Hi Milap,

Install vsftpd rpm and disable anonymous login.
anonymous_enable=NO

restart ftp service. that's it.

look below for more details.

do you have a static IP. If Yes than you can put your FTP Server with all proper security setup on the DMZ Zone.
 
 
 
You can configure it on your Broadband Router. You can route the traffic which hits your static IP to your FTP Server in your LAN allowing only FTP Service to the prople from outside.. Thats using NAT (Network Address Translation) and most of the Broadband Router has this fascility.....
 
 
 
In simple words keep your local server IP on DMZ Zone using your Broadband Modem............

Hi There,
 
                  thats true all you need to do is to go to /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf and jus add
 
annonymous_enable=NO
 
 
Thats all you are done.... you can created users on your FTP Server and your users can access your FTP Server from anywhere with your given credentials e.g username and password....
