Just tell me how I can use Filezilla to access root, when using vsftpd.

I have already removed 'root' from ftpusers, and changed userlist_deny=YES in the conf,      and changed to  chroot_local_user=YES

Why i must change:

sudo chown nobody:nogroup /home/vsftp/ftpsudo chmod a-w /home/vsftp/ftp

I want to be able to modify all 'ftp' directory, not only 'test' directory. Can you explain me this?

the portion related to acess over SSL/TLS has an error somewhere for Ubuntu 20.04. I constantly get the error after the vsftpd.conf file    (code=exited, status=2). I saw some articles about PAM service being a problem. But I don't really understand. Anyone face this problem?
