plush sedge
I have a Microsoft Azure VM instance which I connect to with a username and password to access the SSH. However, I want to connect via SFTP to write files onto the VM, but I keep getting an error with writing files into the server. I have read perms but no write perms.
It clearly a root access problem, but I dont know how to connect with root with SFTP
strange ruin
For security purposes I wouldn't login with root using sftp but create a directory in which you want to upload to and give your user owner
For example: mkdir /home/user/upload
And then sudo chown -R /home/user/upload/
And then you can use rsync or scp to upload files to there or any other sftp/scp capable client
scp -r /path/to/local/directory user@remote_host:/home/user/upload
