docker-alpine-ftp-server-tls

Small and flexible docker image with vsftpd server with tls

Important Note

I think upstream has made it more complicated than it needs to be since this commit and I'm not merging its commits anymore, although I cherry-pick some of them when I see fit.

• ADDRESS - external address to which clients can connect for passive ports (optional, should resolve to ftp server ip address)
• MIN_PORT - minimum port number to be used for passive connections (optional, default 21000)
• MAX_PORT - maximum port number to be used for passive connections (optional, default 21010)

ALERT

Do not use this certificate in your production server, you should generate your own certificate using this command openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 7300 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout vsftpd.pem -out vsftpd.pem

The image gets big if we add openssl and generate certificate inside container, but it will be easy on host to generate a new certificate.
