Resolved Accessing server system files with File Manager

[seqoi]

Hi.

I have root access but i am not able to figure out (as you can see i am new to plesk) am i able to use same Plesk file manager to browse server system folders.

Example when i log in to Plesk this is what i see (file1.jpg)


but is it possible for me to use same file manager but to see these files


Just asking. So far i am unable to go out of web home directory...I have PleskWebAdmin edition...

No, it is NOT possible to use the Plesk Control Panel to list and navigate in the root directory.

No problem. Just asking.

Thanks for your time and for response.

If you're not comfortable with using the command line, you CAN view the files using SFTP, with a normal FTP client such as FileZilla. Care is still needed, though, as you'll be accessing the server as root, presumably, and could cause significant damage if you make changes.

Yeah i am just using SSH and that's it. I was curious that is all.

I am VERY new to plesk and i have ton of question.

So far Plesk seems way way ahead of Cpanel experience for me and i am actually very very happy. Just trying to know Plesk workflow that's all. Thanks for helping.
