Read the "Question Guidelines" link in my posting signature. You've been a member here for five years now, so you should know you need to provide details, and show effort first, before posting. You say "Linux 7.2"...WHICH Linux 7.2? RHEL? CentOS? Really old Fedora, openSUSE, Mandrake what???? And have you tried to look this up? Because putting "how to configure ftps on linux" into Google pulls up MANY how-to guides.

We're happy to help with actual problems/questions, but don't ask us to look things up for you.

as above there is no operating system called " 7.2"

if this is Cent OS 7.2
you can not do much of anything
it is UNSUPPORTED !! nothing to install and no updates for a few years

install CentOS 7.5 ( or is it still 7.4 with 7.5 do any day now ? )

THEM configure ftp on a FULLY patched and updated system

Hi,

I have done all this:-

-----------------------
rpmquery vsftpd
service vsftpd restart



Create certificate

cd /etc/vsftpd

openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout vsftpd.pem -out vsftpd.pem

ls -l

it creates vsftpd.pem file in current folder

vi vsftpd.conf

go to bottom add this

#for ftps

ssl_enable=YES
allow_anon_ssl=YES
force_local_data_ssl=YES
force_local_logins_ssl=YES
ssl_tlsv1=YES
ssl_sslv2=YES
ssl_sslv3=YES
rsa_cert_file=/etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.pem

wq!

service vsftpd restart
chkconfig vsftpd on

netstat -tulnp | grep 21

it should show port 21



Extra:-

also make sure that

getsebool -a | grep ftp

ftp_home_dir--> shuould be on


Now how to make sure that FTPS is configured on Linux system without trying from another system, is there any way?

Thanks

Create a VM or try from your Mobile's browser.
Most mainstream browsers, have ftp (unsure about ftps)support.
(Personally haven't tried this way though)

can you post the output of this command please



also be aware that CentOS 7.2 went END OF LIFE back in May of 2016

you would NOT use a Microsoft OS that is missing 2 YEARS!!!!!! of security updates
so do not use a linux OS that is missing TWO YEARS OF SECURITY UPDATES!!!

Please install / or upgrade to CentOS 7.5 ASAP!!!!

Then secure a FTP-S install

redhat realease RHEL 7.2

upgrade to RHEL 7.5 ASAP first

then configure the secure ftp server
