Hey DigitalOcean,
Could you please provide instructions for setting up FTP access to Ubuntu 14.04. I have followed the guide you have for 12.04 but it does not give root access. I need to be able to have full read write access to all data on my ubuntu server. Please help!

Fortunately, it is not possible to log in as root over FTP. :) FTP is inherently insecure, it is best to use SFTP instead which is secure and allows root access: How To Use Filezilla to Transfer and Manage Files Securely on your VPS.
