I tried to edit VSFTPD.CONF file but it says I don't have permission. I was logged in root user "ubuntu".

Can anyone help to figure out and resolve my problem.

    please add the result of `ls -l vsftpd.conf` from the place the file is located. And the command you used to start editing it. – Rinzwind Aug 02 '19 at 08:11
  • `ubuntu` itself is not the root user - to temporarily become root use `sudo` - see [How do I get permissions to edit system configuration files?](https://askubuntu.com/questions/92379/how-do-i-get-permissions-to-edit-system-configuration-files) – steeldriver Aug 02 '19 at 08:16
  • Need to use the `sudo` along with the command `/etc/vsftpd.conf`, as a result, to edit use the command: `sudo nano /etc/vsftpd.conf` – Razor Rassh Aug 02 '19 at 10:06
