Create general FTP account

[Adobe]

Hello everyone!
I have ISPmanager Lite 5.31.1
So, I need to create general FTP account for all hosts (/var/www/). Via panel or Shell
I have accumulated a lot of account and It becomes difficultly.

Hello,

ISPmanager allows to create FTP account only for users. I mean each FTP account has uid as a user. Each FTP account has access permissions as a user has.
So, to be able to manage all files in /var/www it needs to be root. But root can't login via ftp but via sftp can. May be it is better to use sftp and login as root.

I have seen it. But i need access to all projects access. I have 20+ logins and passwords.

It is impossible technically. Use sftp or single user account for all www domains.

How can I create SFTP account?

New account is not required. You may connect as root.

Please read about sftp here (https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-sftp-to-securely-transfer-files-with-a-remote-server)

Gold the Rule: Never login as root.
Need to create any other account

If you want to create another user with root access - duplicate root line in /etc/passwd like this:
root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash
newroot:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash

After then - create password for him:
passwd newroot

And use newroot sftp

Or you could choose another way to add administrative user manually
