I installed vsftpd on Ubuntu by typing sudo apt-get install vsftpd

I used the gksudo gedit /etc/vsftpd.conf command to modify the config file to enable logins by typing Anonymous enable=YES and I also enabled writing through FTP.

Next I enabled the FTP Server on Windows which allows me to connect to the Ubuntu machine.

Next, I restart the vsftpd and connect to the ubuntu machine from the windows machine.

Next I use an FTP client to transfer a file and capture the transfer over Wireshark.
