Anonymous SFTP ??

[avarada]

Hi,

Wondering to know if anyone has configured "Anonymous SFTP" yet ? I highly appreciate for any guidance or leads.

Thanks for your time

Hi,

sftp is part of the secure shell which does not support anonymous logins without password. Of cause, you could setup a user "anonymous" with a password "ftp", but then you have to take some actions to prevent this user from loggin in and opening a shell.
From my point of view it makes no sense to set up a secured & encrypted server with access granted to everyone.
A solution might be to set up a HTTPS server (f.e. apache with ssl) to enable file down & upload without passwords.

Best regards

Stefan
