Here is one thing you can do: If you can log into the server (to manage, upload that way) then you can use ssh like this: alias tunnel='ssh -L 8001:127.0.0.1:8002 ' >From your end, if you use "tunnel" to connect to your server, say: tunnel m...@myserver:my_web2py_instalnce then - once logged into your server, you can run a separate web2py instalnce to talk on 127.0.0.1:8002 (or whatever local port is available - adjust the "ssh" command appropriately). That is, after logging into your server simlilar to above, then: python web2py.py -p 8002 -a 'my_admin_password' # this on the remote machine will bring a parallel instance of web2py up, using the builtin cherrypy (which is ok for admin); you will be able to edit apps, view tickets, etc. This will show up on the remote machine's 127.0.0.1:8001, BUT you have it tunneled to your local machine into port 8001 ( ssh -L 8001:... ) so you can take a LOCAL browser to view this instance of your server as 127.0.0.1:8001 (the local port which is viewing the remote 127.0.0.1:8001 output). As long as you are logged in, and have the tunnel setup, you can admin your machine through the admin interface in this way.
