Webmin -> Virtualmin -- How to access FTP?

0

I'm trying to access FTP using WinSCP. I made an FTP user for an specific virtual server. I tried many combinations of session details but none of them work. I also can't find a clear guide/documentation what details are necessary.

Edit: What details should work by default? like

File protocol: FTP
Encryption: TLS/SSL implicit encryption
Host name: example.com
Port number: 21
User name: x.example.com
Password: xxxxxx

I'm curious what i'm doing wrong and wether or not this is just a firewall related issue.

Edit2: When i feel like i enter all the details properly i get this error:

No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
Connection failed.

I did ufw allow ftp

I'm gonna guess there is no good FTP solution build in Webmin/Virtualmin and go for an external solution – Bram z – 2016-09-11T01:27:28.830

Managed to get sftp access.

Installed openssh-server -> apt-get install openssh-server
Install webmin module -> proFTPd Add user in webmin -> system -> users and groups -- setting up:

username
password
new group/ primary group === username

Would still like to know if there is a better way. Sorry for bad spelling but im really tired.
