I guess you refer to share the sanme SFTP/FTP username/password, right? If you are the only user that is going to manage them and you foresee no problems with that policy, it should be fine. The number of users is mostly a matter of management convenience (because different privileges can apply to different users). > Is it posible to maintain a secure server using a single user with > several websites? Yep, why not? A secure server is not just about how many users there are, indeed, the less users -and the less services- the better, but choose a very good password for it because is someone breaks it, it will have access to all of the hosted sites ;-) Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
