Download and install the Linux package vsftp. The exact procedure will vary depending on the type and version of Linux you are running. In most cases, for example with Red Hat, Suse or Ubuntu, vsftp is a stable package that is included in the repositories that are used to update your version of Linux. In many Linux installations, vsftp is installed by default, but not started.
Configure VSFTP. The exact location and name of the configuration file will vary slightly depending on the version of Linux you are using. In Ubuntu, the configuration file is 'vsftpd.conf.' Edit this file to change the following settings:
ftpd_banner: Edits the message that is displayed when someone connects to the server.
listen: Enables vsfppd to run in stand alone mode.
xferlog_enable: Enables a detailed log of uploads and downloads.
connect_from_port_20: Defines whether PORT style connections use port 20 on the server.
hide_ids: Hides user IDs, listing all group users as 'ftp.'
max_client: Defines the maximum number of connections allowed in standalone mode.
max_per_ip: Defines the highest number of connections allowed from a particular IP in standalone mode.
anon_root: Defines the root directory for anonymous FTP users.
anonymous_enable: Enables anonymous users.
anon_mkdir_write_enable: Allows anonymous users to create directories. For this option to work, the server must have anonymous uploads enabled, and the ftp user and group must have write permissions on the directory where the new directories will be created.
Once the file vsftpd.conf has been edited to your satisfaction, save the file.
Stop the vsftpd server by typing 'sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd stop.' You should see a message confirming that the server has stopped.
Restart the vsftp server with the new configuration data in /etc/vsftpd.conf by typing 'sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd start.' You should see a message confirming that the server has started.

How to Setup an FTP Server in UbuntuIn Feburary 2016 26,
In Feburary 2016 26,
Open a terminal window.
Install vsftpd. Vsftpd is the daemon, or server, that users will connect to. To install vsftpd, type 'sudo apt-get install vsftpd.' Ubuntu will ask for your password. Follow the on screen instructions to install the server.
Edit the configuration, or conf, file. To do this, browse to '/etc' using the Nautilus file browser. Nautilus is the default file browser on most Ubuntu installations. Find 'vsftpd.conf' and double-click on the file.
Enable or disable anonymous access. Anonymous access allows people to access your server by simply giving you their email address. If anonymous access is disabled, you will need to create an account for each person who you wish to access your FTP server.
Set the location for the root of the FTP file structure. This setting is controlled by 'secure_chroot_dir' in the vsftpd.conf file.
Restart the FTP server by typing 'sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd restart.'
Place the files you want to share in the FTP root.

How to Move an OpenX ServerIn Feburary 2016 09,
In Feburary 2016 09,
Log in to your site's administrative back-end and make sure that the server points to your new domain name. Your host might do this for you automatically.
Connect to your site via an FTP client or a file manager provided by your Web host, whichever is most convenient for you. Navigate to the 'var' directory within your OpenX server files and locate the 'olddomain.com.conf.php' file, where 'olddomain' is the URL of your old domain. Right-click the file and select 'Rename.' Change 'olddomain' to your new domain name.
Double-click the newly named file to open it. Change every instance of your old domain name in the file to the new domain name. Save and close the file.
Double-click the 'default.conf.php' file. Replace every instance of your old domain name in the file with your new domain name. Save and close the file.
Open every other file with 'conf' in its name and change any instance of your old domain to the new domain. The number and names of these configuration files will vary depending on how you have previously used your OpenX server. Once all of the files point to the new domain, you are ready to use OpenX with your new domain name.
