How to Add FTP User With LinuxIn Feburary 2016 21,

In Feburary 2016 21,
Log in to the FTP server as user 'root.' Start a shell by either logging in in text mode, or by launching a terminal window from graphical mode. The specific way of performing this step depends on the Linux distribution. For example, for Ubuntu Linux, click on 'Applications' on the taskbar at the top of the screen, then select 'Terminal.'
Create the new FTP user by entering the following command into the shell:adduser -c 'Jake Nix (FTP)' -m jakenixReplace 'Jake Nix' with the user's full name, and 'jakenix' with the user name he will use to access the FTP server.
Set a password for the new account by entering the following command into the shell:passwd jakenixPress 'Enter,' then enter the same password twice, pressing 'Enter' after each time.
Configure the FTP server to make FTP accounts correspond to accounts local to the server, by adding the following line to file '/etc/vsftpd.conf' with a text editor:local_enable=YESSave the file and exit the text editor.
Restart the FTP server to make it read the change to its configuration, by entering the following command into the shell:service vsftpd restartPress 'Enter.' At that point, the new user will have been added to the FTP server, and the server will be ready to accept FTP connections from the new user.
