Changing from SFTP to FTP
Hello, I am trying to set up a regular FTP server and I have configured everything the way it is supposed to be configured for FTP, but it keeps forcing it to be an SFTP. I even checked the status of port 21 and my server's IP is listening on port 21 and 22. But I does not let me connect via port 21, only port 22. So overall my question is, how do I switch from an SFTP server to a regular FTP. I would very much appreciate some assistance on this,
Thank you.
Thank you.
Re: Changing from SFTP to FTP
What client are you using? If its filezilla make sure this is set to FTP:
If it cannot connect on FTP, it will give you an error instead of trying to use SFTP.

I use FileZilla, and yes I have tried that and it does not let me connect like that, even though the server is listening on port 21. Here is the error it gives me: (Attached image)

No, it attempts to connect and then says that, and that's it.

Re: Changing from SFTP to FTP
I was able to connect to the server, I just wasn't authenticated. My response from the server was:
Response: 530 Login incorrect.
Error: Critical error: Could not connect to server
Do you have anything like a numbered response?

No, the only error it gives me is that image I posted a few posts back

This is what I get when I run a traceroute. It looked successful to me
