ok the easiest way I have to find the unix path to a file is to put a php file in the folder with the following content:-

<?PHP
phpinfo();
?>

name the file info.php and place it in your root directory for your domain. Open the page in a browser and in your browser do a search for SCRIPT_FILENAME to the right of this you will find the path to where the script you just traversed too is. For me it is:-

/home/metalco/public_html/info.php

to make it so that it points to the user folder they are wanting delete info.php from the path and add members/user after it so in my case it would be:-

/home/metalco/public_html/members
