In this article you will learn how to enable and connect to the SFTP server in OpenSSH. With SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol)<\/a> you can easily transfer files over the internet using SSH. We will be using Ubuntu 22.04 for our server, however any version of Linux should work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This guide will use password authentication with IP firewall restriction. This will prevent anyone besides those who you want accessing the box via SSH or SFTP. If you want the highest level of security possible you will want to enable keys in OpenSSH before following this guide. Learn how to enable keys with our How to Setup OpenSSH with Keys on Ubuntu 22.04<\/a> tutorial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SFTP vs FTP<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is important to mention that SFTP is not the same as FTP. One of the main differences is while they both transfer files, only SFTP encrypts the data during transit. Another difference is FTP is unable to benefit from public key files for authentication. Using public keys with SFTP increases security by encrypting the transfer data stream. If your aim is security then it is highly recommended you use SFTP versus FTP. Now that I have described the differences lets move on to configuring and connecting to an SFTP server in OpenSSH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Update and Upgrade Ubuntu<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"update<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The first thing you need to do is update and upgrade your Ubuntu installation. Open a terminal and type the following command. Afterwards press “Y” to confirm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Install OpenSSH<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"install<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
After your system has finished updating you will need to install the OpenSSH server software. OpenSSH provides encrypted file transfer for file transfers and remote logins. Install the software using the apt command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt install openssh-server<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
View SSH Status<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"view<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Next you need to verify that OpenSSH is installed on your system and actively running. Use the below command and confirm that you see “active (running)” on the third line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo systemctl status ssh<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
If SSH does not show as active and running it may be disabled. Run the following command to enable and start the OpenSSH server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo systemctl enable ssh && sudo systemctl start ssh<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Create New User<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"create<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Now you will need to create a new user for logging into the SFTP server. Run the adduser command then type a password. You can skip the other fields if you wish. Finally press “Y” to confirm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo adduser sftpuser<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Create New Group<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"create<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Afterwards we will create a new group for our sftpuser. We will configure SSH to give SFTP access to any user in this group. Run the addgroup command to proceed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo addgroup sftpusers<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Add User to Group<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"add<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Next we need to add the user to the new group. Run the usermod command to add the sftpuser to the sftpusers group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo usermod -a -G sftpusers sftpuser<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Change User’s Home Permissions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"change<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Then we will set new permissions on the sftpuser’s home directory. This will allow the SFTP server to access these files. First execute the chown command followed by the chmod command. The sftpuser’s home will be the folder you access when you connect to the SFTP server. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo chown root: \/home\/sftpuser<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
sudo chmod 777 \/home\/sftpuser<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Edit the SSH Config File<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Next we need to edit the sshd_config file and edit a few lines. Open the configuration file using the nano text editor as shown below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo nano \/etc\/ssh\/sshd_config<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Locate the Subsytem Line<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"locate<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
After you open the file scroll down and look for the Subsystem line. Once you locate the line comment it out using the “#” symbol as shown below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
#Subsystem      sftp    \/usr\/lib\/openssh\/sftp-server<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Add New Lines<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"edit<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Now that you have commented out the Subsystem line you need to add a few additional lines. Paste the following underneath the line you commented out. Your sshd_config file should match the screenshot above. After the lines have been added save and close the file using “Ctrl+X”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Subsystem sftp internal-sftp\n\nMatch Group sftpgroup\n     ChrootDirectory %h\n     X11Forwarding no\n     AllowTCPForwarding no<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Restart SSH<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"restart<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
To apply our changes we will restart ssh. Use the following service command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo service ssh restart<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Configure the Firewall<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The next step is to configure the firewall using UFW to control access to our SFTP server. Start by denying all incoming traffic, and allowing all outgoing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo ufw default deny incoming\nsudo ufw default allow outgoing<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Allow SSH (All IP’s)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"allow<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
You have two options when allowing SSH through the firewall. You can either allow any IP to access port 22 (not recommended). Or you can only allow specific IP(s) through the firewall. I recommend the section option as it offers higher security. If you want to allow any IP run the following command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo ufw allow ssh<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Allow SSH (Specific IP’s)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"allow<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
If you want to only allow specific IP’s to access the server run the following command for each IP you want to have access. You need to replace “IP-ADDRESS” with your own IP. This is highly recommended as it offers the highest level of security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo ufw allow from IP-ADDRESS to any port ssh<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Enable UFW<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"enable<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
After you have allow the IP’s (or everyone) who you want to have access you will need to enable UFW. Run the following command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo ufw enable<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Check Firewall Status<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"check<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
The last step is to check the firewall status and verify your configuration. Check it using the ufw status command. If you allowed access to only specific IP’s you will see them in the “From” column.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo ufw status<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Connecting to the SFTP Server<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Finally we can test our connection to the SFTP server. The first thing you will need is a FTP client. I recommend downloading FileZilla. This is the software we will use in this tutorial. You can install it using the following apt command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt install filezilla<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Edit Site List<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"edit<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Open Filezilla and click on the site manager button in the upper left hand corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Add a New Site<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"add<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Type Connection Information<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"add<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Confirm Host Key Prompt<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"confirm<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Verify Connection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"verify<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
