[gentoo-user] Web hosting

[Nikolay Balov]

Hi all
I'm trying to make a web server who will serve may be 3-4 domains. I 
need to make a ftp account for every domain, which root is the root of 
the apache domain (/var/www/domain1/htdocs must be root for apache and 
for the ftp server) so the users can upload files to there web site. Can 
you help me how to do that? 10x a lot BTW I'm using Apache2 and proftpd 
but it's no mandatory to use proftpd, any resolution of my problem will 
be good :)

Best regadrs,
Niki

First of all, forget about FTP, use SSH/SFTP instead.

Set up a virtual named host for each web site. Set up a user for each web site 
with their respective DocumentRoots as their home directories.

Voila!
