vsftpd is a GPL licensed FTP server for UNIX systems, including Linux.
This Docker image is configured to allow anonymous uploads only.
A very minimal level of access control is provided by listing allowed emails in /etc/vsftpd.email_passwords. /var/lib/ftp/incoming should be mounted as a volume, note permissions are important! xferlogs are sent to stdout.
Passive FTP ports are configured to fit with the default Kubernetes NodePort range since FTP does not support port-forwarding between different ports.
docker run -d --name vsftpd -p 21:21 -p 32022-32041:32022-32041 -v /var/lib/ftp/incoming vsftpd-anonymous-uploadLogin as anonymous, password [email protected]. You can upload files to incoming but listing is blocked.
