Hello so i went trough this guide http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=45 and fixed a new dbuser and pass
In the guide it says the following.

3) Now we need to make sure it's setup correctly for DA to use. Edit /usr/local/directadmin/conf/mysql.conf and set

But the problem is when i am logged in putty ssh as root user and do the input below
[root@server ~]/usr/local/directadmin/conf/mysql.conf
I get in response
-bash: /usr/local/directadmin/conf/mysql.conf: Permission denied
So how can access the file mysql.conf when nothing shows up even if i have root access?
Is it any way to access the file in question trought DA-interface?

Thanks

Hey,

It says "Edit"...

You need to use vi or another editor to edit the mysql.conf file.

Like:

vi /usr/local/directadmin/conf/mysql.conf
