What is SFTP?

SFTP, or Secure File Transfer Protocol, is a secure file transfer protocol that uses secure shell encryption to provide a high level of security for sending and receiving file transfers.

SFTP is similar to FTPS in that it uses AES and other algorithms to secure data as it travels between different systems. SFTP also provides several methods to fulfill the authentication of a connection such as user IDs and passwords, SSH keys, or combinations of these. SFTP is capable of helping enterprises achieve file transfer compliance as required for HIPAA, GDPR, and other regulatory regimes.

How to launch the VM and access SFTPGo

To access SFTPGo after launching the VM instance, simply open http://instance IP:8080/web/admin in your browser, create the first admin user and start using SFTPGo.

This virtual machine is pre-configured to use SQLite but you can easily switch to PostgreSQL, CockroachDB, MySQL/MariaDB or an embedded key/value store.

Default Configuration Settings

The configuration file is "/etc/sftpgo/sftpgo.json".
Logs are written to the directory "/srv/sftpgo/logs".
The SQLite database is stored in the "/var/lib/sftpgo" directory.
Data for local users is stored in "/srv/sftpgo" directory.

If you attach additional disks please make sure to set the proper permissions after mounting them. The SFTPGo service runs using the dedicated "sftpgo" system user.

For example supposing you are mounting additional disks on "/srv/data" and "/var/lib/sftpgo", execute:

sudo chown sftpgo:sftpgo /srv/data
sudo chown sftpgo:sftpgo /var/lib/sftpgo

Then restart the service. sudo systemctl restart sftpgo.service
