So, I thought I will give DynDNS a try and try to access my server from outside world. Once, after installing and updating my Ubuntu server, I took the following actions:
1. Registered with DynDNS and got a hostname.
2. Installed and configured SSH: openssh configuration and able to connect using putty and the external host name.
However, in order to secure the access through certificates, I had to produce the key pair from the client and in order to upload the public key, had to setup the FTP server.
3. Installation and setup the SFTPD server on Ubuntu: Took me very long. Experienced the issues such as:
3.1 sftpd.conf not available: purge the installation through apt-get command and reinstalled it.
3.2 Logging as anonymous user:
3.3 Unable to run with writeable anonymous user's home.
