I have added user with a command:
sudo adduser *user*
Now I can connect using FileZilla, however I have no clue what path does it brings me to. I would like to be able to browse root of my server/site.

To modify the user after creation, you’d want to use
usermodfrom the CLI. The argument would be the same as it is foruseradd, so you’d run:Where
/home/useris the home path you want to assign to the user anduseris the username of the user you want to create or modify.
