On my Ubuntu server, when I do everything now I do it as "root" user.

So for example, logging into ftp filezilla, I enter "root" as username...

Is this the way to do it, or should I create a users group and add priveliges to the users in that group?

Don't know if I should create a new user or not, it works with root just fine, but I don't want any security flaws...

Thanks
