I have enabled root on my vps account, how do I navigate to carry out root commands only on a specific account. Or does the root enabling allow me to login as admin user on any of my accounts then su?

Hello mikeand, Thank you for your question regarding Root SSH to specific account. I recommend being very careful since your root user has a higher level of access to the whole server's file system and all accounts. If you just want to make changes to a specific account, you should specify in the command what path and the change you want to make. Also, here is a helpful link to our guide on How to log in to your VPS via SSH. Thank you, John-Paul
