Add master account to Plesk 11

Lenvanessen

New Pleskian
Hello,

I have a question, i'm used to have a master ftp account with mij plesk 10.x installation, but since i have plesk 11 i don't have one anymore.

Can anyone tell me how to activate/create a master ftp account that can access any file in the /vhosts directory

Searching the web i found this command: useradd -u 10101 -o -d /var/www/vhosts/ -g psacln -s /bin/false masterFTP

But i'm not getting anything from it, i used ssh to enter it but it gives the response:

useradd: warning: the home directory already exists.
Not copying any file from skel directory into it.

Also, if this has worked, what would my password be?

Thanx
 
useradd: warning: the home directory already exists.
Not copying any file from skel directory into it.
It is just a warning, user should be created.
Anyway you can edit /etc/passwd in order to change home directory for existing users.
