Zpanel, how to open root FTP

Zpanel FTP users are virtual users that have no right to access the server out of their virtual-root domain directory, so they are not enabled to create such access.
But if you are adminisrator you can login to phpmyadmin as root and change manually the root path of any FTP user: - in database zpanel_core, table x_ftpaccounts, column ft_directory_vc (path relative from zpanel dir, for display and remember) AND - in database zpanel_proftpd, table ftpuser, column homedir (absolute path for ftp access)
Opening an access to /etc/zpanel/panel will give access to all files of the panel, including files that contains login and password for mysql. I ADVISE TO NOT DO IT,
