Linux, I can't access the directory remotely, what should I do?

Question

linux

Hello!
There is a file server like: My Cloud (it seems to work under Debian) I climbed into it (remotely) via Putty.
And in general, the thing is, I can not get access (or rather climb) to the "Public" directory There is a directory! There the information lies on 1.5 TV.
The terminal tells me the infection says that there is no directory, what kind of nonsense? Don't scold me too much, I'm not particularly Linuxoid .. In general, I can't understand ... what am I doing wrong ..?

Answer 1

What about cd Public or cd ./Public ?
Read about absolute and relative paths

Answer 2

Because a path that starts with a slash is considered from the root of the file system, just like /etc or /var.
To change to the Public directory do either
or

cd /shares
cd Public

Answer 3

No slash needed:
cd Public
