A friend of mine inadvertently mentioned FTP while we were discussing this one day. I think the best solution to my problem is to use some PHP (or other language) FTP client. This way I can securely allow access to a home directory. I don't want to allow direct FTP access for various reasons but through a web interface I am keen on the idea. Using a web FTP client that is locked to a specific server they can provide their username/passwd without any requirement for chrooting vhosts, etc. I think this is the way I will go. Thanks very much to everybody who helped me out with suggestions. I'll probably use a lot of these at some time, anyway ;) -lewiz. --=20 I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now. --Bob Dylan, 1964. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -| msn:purple@lewiz.net | jabber:lewiz@jabber.org | url:www.lewiz.org |- --FL5UXtIhxfXey3p5 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFANSb/Itq0KFQv7T8RAv9uAJ94ShjiENkcVZPJYq+Xup7y0oE1owCgve/D 6tpZNrFW0tmt2vzi00l997U= =UBfg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --FL5UXtIhxfXey3p5--
