![]() ![]() I realized that this was a bad approach too since I was dealing with users that had a wide (wide) range of technical comfort and knowledge. While I deployed the server and got it working for my needs I later realized that I was trading the ‘you need to create a Dropbox account’ hassle with ‘you need to upload using a FTP program’. So rather than hassle people about creating a Dropbox account, I figured that a temporary FTP server through Digital Ocean* would be easier. What I didn’t realize was that in order for anyone to upload to a shared Dropbox folder, that person has to have an account on Dropbox. I had originally thought this was going to be easy with my 1 TB Dropbox account. My reason for creating such a server was that I wanted to collect photos for an event (from the guests that came to the event). These are some quick notes/lessons related to vsftpd installation on Ubuntu 14.
