You can use scp(1) and ship a SSH public key with your software. The
target server must be configured to disable PTY allocation for this key,
so only SCP/SFTP transfer will be possible.

Collecting the list of loaded modules (kldstat) is also nessesary :-)

As far as I remember, you're going to use PHP as a programming language?
In this case Apache is a good choice. I would however recommend using
www/nginx and PHP in FastCGI mode (FPM option in lang/php5 port). This
is a preffered setup for almost all Russian highloaded websites.
At the beginning using Apache is a reasonable choice.
