You have the slashes reversed. Try this.

Code:
ls /home/username/Test/*.txt

Sorry for the Typo

This command is working for me
Code:
ls /home/username/Test/*.txt

But when am running your command getting an error

Code:
ls /home/username/Test/Server1*.txt

Let me reiterate my requirement:- Requirement is it should list down the all file who is having server1 in their name? But its giving the error.

You have the wildcard at the wrong place. You had mentioned that the files end with "Server1.txt"

So, try this

Code:
ls /home/username/Test/*Server1.txt

which is what I had suggested earlier in this thread (post #4)
