Is there a way to access the USB via FTP server?

I haven’t seen any FTP/SFTP abilities to access the connected USB storage devices. Is this possible and I am just over looking it or is there a work around or juat flat out no?

Isn’t it just a matter of going into Advanced (LUCI), → System → Software (Update Lists) and installing sftp server?

The two packages that look the best to me are:

openssh-sftp-server
or
vsftpd-tls

Sweet I looked in the applications but didn’t even think about the luci side.

Thanks

You don’t have to use Luci, just remember to do update in Applications to refresh the list. You can use openssh-sftp-server, the usb port will be mounted as usual in a folder, standard linux behaviour.
