Once the user has been created you can enable the account, as well as set a password for the user(s) you have created under the “Account Settings”, in the “General” sidebar. Enter the username you would like and select the group the user should be assigned to. Once the group has been created you will need to create a user by going to “Edit”, then “Users”, then “Add”. You can now create a group name and set the group permissions.

To configure the groups in the FileZilla Server go to “Edit”, then “Groups”, then click “Add” under the group window. Once started you can now configure the FTP Server with different groups for the users. If you would like to set an administrative password, enter one now and click “OK”. Once installed, the FileZilla server should open. If you do decide to change the port, make sure it is an uncommon port, generally 1024-65535. I recommend leaving it at the standard port 14147. You will see an option to select what port the admin interface for FileZilla server should list. You will need to install the FileZilla server on your computer. You’ll first need to download the FileZilla server. There are a few different choices you can use to create an FTP server, but in this guide, we will use FileZilla, which is free.

If you do not already have an account, you will need to create an account by following the steps in our Getting Started guide. You can create and use a hostname with No-IP to run an FTP server.
