I'm not trying to be snarky here, but I would suggest... ssh.
That's exactly I suggested to those guys.. some chroot-ed accounts for
sftp/ssh and etc..
Today I've been dealing with phpMyAdmin, trying to get the beast
up, and I believe I have it and am getting mysql up. But had I not
had to fight phpMyAdmin, I'd have been farther along today.
This tendency to use gui tools for things isn't good. No one can
possibly say that their security increases by using them--you
add complexity, and that always gives rise to new possibilities
of trouble.
The GUI-thingies are meant to ease our users to manage their virtual
domains, virtual mail boxes and etc.. And they don't do text-based
configuration :), they are basically M$ users.
But the worse problem here is that by using some tool to do
things, you haven't learned whats going on under the hood.
Not really.
