No.  VServers could share a single filesystem, which was convenient,
but Xen have all virtual machines on separate filesystems (as it
isolates them at a lower level).  And filesystems cannot be mounted
in- and outside of the VM at once for consistency reasons.

As a consequence you need to login to each virtual machine directly.
To make it possibly I enabled SSH root access to them (while that was
blocked before).

You can log from colonialone to any virtual machine, even internal
ones (those that are not visible on the public network), as root's SSH
key is installed everywhere.

Check the doc for other details ("Access Xen DomUs using 'ssh
address@hidden'.")

(I just updated it with the above text)

Let me know if that's now clear enough.

                    ^^^^ in the 'sftp' virtual machine.
