How do you access this with reseller? FTP with root no go.SSH with root permission denied..........

The reseller server is still a shared server and you cannot access the http.conf file to make changes.

Are you an a reseller server or dedicated server? resellers cant access config files.. you would need a dedicated server to edit it

No putty is fine.. can you copy and paste your session in putty and post it here so we can see if you are doing something wrong?

Yes you can.
But nowadays you can't really edit httpd.conf in a cPanel server.

You can make changes to the Global Server configuration on a VPS or Dedicated server solution, but you also have to run additional scripts to inform cPanel that you HAVE made changes. If you don't do this, the next time the configurations are rebuilt cPanel will wipe most of these changes out. Review the cPanel documentation below on using includes, and the additional scripts you should run after making changes to these configurations.
