I'm a newbie trying to transfer shared hosting files with WinSCP. I'm logged in and I can see my root folder and mail folder but no other folder. How do I access my public_html folder with WinSCP? My website site is saved in /srv/www/example.com/public_html/.

Thank you.

I think there is a setting in WinSCP (been a while since I last used it) where you define your startup folder as soon as you connect.

Alternatively you can SSH in the box and create a symlink to your folder:

Code:
cd /home/fehin
ln -s /srv/www/example.com/public_html www


This will create a www symlink in your home folder to allow you go to the public_html location easier.
