Introduction Nginx is one of the most popular web servers in the world and is responsible for hosting some of the largest and highest-traffic sites on the internet. It is more resource-friendly than Apache in most cases and can be used as a web server or a reverse proxy. In this guide, we'll discuss how to get Nginx installed on your Ubuntu 14.04 server. Prerequisites Before you begin this guide, you should have a regular, non-root user with sudo privileges configured on your server.

Introduction FTP, or “File Transfer Protocol” is a popular method of transferring files between two remote systems. SFTP, which stands for SSH File Transfer Protocol, or Secure File Transfer Protocol, is a separate protocol packaged with SSH that works in a similar way over a secure connection. The advantage is the ability to leverage a secure connection to transfer files and traverse the filesystem on both the local and remote system.

In almost all cases, SFTP is preferable to FTP because of its underlying security features and ability to piggy-back on an SSH connection. Although SFTP is integrated into many graphical tools, this guide will demonstrate how to use it through its interactive command line interface. How to Connect with SFTP By default, SFTP uses the SSH protocol to authenticate and establish a secure connection. Although passwords are easy to use and set up by default, we recommend you create SSH keys and transfer your public key to any system that you need to access. Exit pwd. Tutorials.
