- These instructions are intended specifically for solving the error: 500 OOPS: priv_sock_get_cmd.
- I’ll be working from a Liquid Web Self Managed Fedora 20 server, and I’ll be logged in as root.

echo 'seccomp_sandbox=NO' >> /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf
Be sure to restart vsftpd:
systemctl restart vsftpd
