Hello People,

When I am logging in to FTP all dot files are unvisible. How I can make them visible? So that I can see, read and write them? I am using pure-FTPD, I Hope somebody can help me.. :)

Thanks!
 
You should change your FTP client (program) settings to do listings with an "-a" flag :) To force the server show files starting with a dot by default, edit /etc/init.d/pure-ftpd (or /usr/libexec/pureftpd_startscript on CentOS7/Debian8) and add -D flag to the options line, save the file and restart pure-ftpd service then.
