This post explains briefly how to configure FTP storage locations on Amcrest IP Camera.
- Go to Setup > Storage > Destinations > FTP tab

- Click on test
- “FTP server test failure, list right loss.” means it is successful, observe the test folder getting created in your FTP share.

FTP Settings
Address: 10.1.1.20
Port: 21
usenrame: your fto username
password: your ftp password
Directory: /mnt/Kingston/amcrest
Note about directory: I found i had to set this to the same path my FTP server is configured. On ProFTP I created a user amcrest
using gadmin-proftpd
(a GUI tool for configuring ProFTPd).
