To run FTP program on a VPS you need to install VsFTP

sudo yum install vsftpd

Install FTP client to connect to FTP server with command

sudo yum install ftp

Using nano to open vsftp

sudo nano /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf

You will need to set permissions for somethings here

Restart service

sudo service vsftpd restart

Always turn on when starting vps

chkconfig vsftpd on

Creating a user for FTP client

useradd testftp

Set password for user

passwd testftp

Prompt you for new password
Changing password for user user.
New password:
Retype new password:
passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully.

All done. Now you can use ftp programs to connect to vps using ssh and port 22.

Good luck!

You can try sftp since VPS will enable you to ssh to the host
