[@Kyzoe-Hosting](/user/Kyzoe-Hosting) I wonder about this though - this would require their SSH keys?

[@Dennis](/user/Dennis), Or a username / Password. Runcloud has this, we use a SSH key to access the server but the users can sftp thru Username / Password combo

[@Kyzoe-Hosting](/user/Kyzoe-Hosting) They probably use an SSL certificate to run that FTP server on I suppose?

possible, i have not a clue, but i can create for every user a systemaccount, and twith that System account you can SFTP into the server.
