OSX SFTP with Sudo?

Multi tool use

I have been given access to a server to help with some legacy development work. The server is running RedHat Enterprise Linux 6 as its OS.



To access this server, I must first SSH in with my username/password that was set up for me. There is then a service account that I need to sudo into in order to access some of the web files etc.



Normally I am used to just having a single account where I don't need to sudo into.



That being said, I like to use SFTP to transfer files and thats where I am stuck..



When I use an application like CyberDuck or Filezilla, I login using the SFTP protocol using my assigned username / password. However, I am unable to access the files and directories I need without sudo.



Are there any SFTP applications that support this for a Mac, or the protocol in general? First time running into this surprisingly and not sure of the best way to go about it.
