SSH connection can be established but sftp connection is denied via terminal or any client.The second section of this answer is how to setup SSH key based authentication.

Filezilla or WinSCP alternative for Ubuntu.

Sure, if you have SSH access to the Ubuntu instance, sftp is already available if you haven't disabled it! Here are few references related to that: Also, you do not need to open any additional port into your firewall. I do not know how secure is vsftp in practice, but if you do not have a special need to use this service you can use sftp that goes over the encrypted SSH connection and uses its key based authentication if it is previously configured.

For example, if you are using Nautilus as FTP client: In most cases you just need to add : at the end of the target ip-address/FQDN. Then you should instruct the FTP client to connect via the port 2121 instead of the default one. For example you can do that for vsftpd by adding the following directive to /etc/nf - reference: listen_port=2121 service and sudo systemctl start rvice, then check the status again: sudo systemctl status rvice.Īnother way to solve this issue is to change the port on which one of these services listen. You can investigate which is that another service by any of the commands: sudo lsof -i -n -P | grep ':21' I've made an experiment and I've received the same status as yours. If you didn't touched /etc/nf, the reason for this failure status should be that another service is already listen on the default FTP port - 21.
