I've been trying to set up Ubuntu 12.10 with FTP to give the A user access to read/write any file on the server.

I understand some people discourage root access for this, but at this stage I am more concerned with getting it to work first, and will address security concerns later.

Have tried a lot of guides online for vsftpd e.t.c but nothing is working.

To make things easier and secure try setting up an SFTP connection.Its much easier.Install SSH.Choose SFTP in sitemanager in Filezilla, enter IP,username,password.You are done...

If you already have vsftpd installed, try setting the following options

anonymous_enable=NO
local_enable=YES
write_enable=YES

Restart vsftpd and it should work (using your root credentials).
