I have a ubuntu box running apache and hosting 4 domains (websites) on it. Up till now I have been content to use Seamonkey wysiwyg editor to admin the pages but now I have a partner who wants to admin one of the domains remotely from his Win10 laptop. This has me in a bit of a tailspin trying to determine the best way to achieve this.
Maybe you should explain to us what "admin" means to you and your partner. I see 3-4 different areas - 1) apache config (mostly vhosts) 2) direct log access 3) shell access to htdocs/ 4) CMS.
1) chown -R <webadmin>:<whatever group> <domain> to give him permissions to work in that directory tree and not any of the others.
Yes, this corresponds to my earlier suggestion of using mpm_itk.
2) I assume I should add some cms system. Wordpress is very popular but I know nothing about its use, capabilities, or configuration.
If you give access to htdocs/, your partner/user can do this himself.
3) If I add cms functionality would he then have the ability to connect and edit via the web instead of having putty or some such on his puter?
Yes, that is generally the idea. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (8.6°C) http://www.cloudsuisse.com/ - your owncloud, hosted in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
