I've been asked to plan a migration away from having Unix shell accounts to using fileman.cgi on a college campus web server. The departmental pages in the Apache "DocumentRoot" seem straightforward enough:
*create a fileman account for the pagemaintainer
*change the directory to be writable by the Apache "User"
*work with each maintainer until satisfied it will work
But will the same fileman.cgi also work with the Apache "UserDir"? It seems like a separate script will be required for these as they are outside the fileman "RootDir". Has anyone used the multi-user fileman for User Directories (~user)? Or would I be better off setting up each user with their own single-user fileman.cgi within their Apache "public_html" - then it would work within the suExec framework. Any thoughts?
