SFTP with Let's Encrypt Using Docker Compose

📙 The complete installation guide is available on my website.

❗ Change variables in the .env to meet your requirements.

💡 Note that the .env file should be in the same directory as sftp-traefik-letsencrypt-docker-compose.yml.

Create networks for your services before deploying the configuration using the commands:

docker network create traefik-network

docker network create sftp-network

Deploy SFTP using Docker Compose:

docker compose -f sftp-traefik-letsencrypt-docker-compose.yml -p sftp up -d

Change the ownership of the user1 directory.

Replace 1001 with the UID for user1 as specified in your .env file.

In this setup, we are using UID 1001 for user1.

sudo chown -R 1001:1001 /srv/sftpusers/user1

Change the ownership of the user2 directory.

Replace 1002 with the UID for user2 as specified in your .env file.

In this setup, we are using UID 1002 for user2.

sudo chown -R 1002:1002 /srv/sftpusers/user2

You can connect to your SFTP server using hostname, port, username and password previously set in the .env.
