Does anyone know how to configure vsftpd for FTP uploads?

I'd like to upload the files of a torrent I've created for seeding, but with WinSCP it's going to take forever.

I've got vsftpd running and can download just fine, but when I connect (as anonymous) I get permisson denied error upon MKD, etc.

So, other than FTPing in as root, how can I set up vsftpd to allow me FTP write access?

OR, is there a better/faster way to get my files to my Leeware server?

I've looked at vsftpd.conf but it's not clear to me. Much appreciation for any replies.

setting a linux ftp server is taking a long time ... you should better set up an ftp server at home, and connect with ftp client to it with your box ...

I hadn't thought about that... I do have an FTP server at home (Bulletproof).

Can you recommend a client for use on the Leeware box? Perhaps a few simple set up steps, please?

Something just installable via yum and controllable over VNC, no?

Well, I hardly want to install and run Firefox just to get an FTP client. ;)

I'm mokeying with Filezilla under wine ATM and it's getting good speeds but is kinda clunky.

Perhaps I'll have to try gftp.
