Create the user a directory inside your htdocs so its like /user/ for their website , then
if your friend has a domain , they can use a script to direct people to their website without
using a redirection service , its exactly like Virtual Hosting but you don't get your own /
root. its a little nice project I created that you can check out below this message. Later!
To host the website using a Vhosting method
you can try ::Virtual Host Creator:: , its cool!

OR you can create an alias with a physical path to a folder, this may be a better method of giving your buddy access to a webserver via ftp. Creat this in the server root and not the web root.
the ftp server part is a question of setting up the webserver folder structure and then simply adding your friend as a user and locking them into a home directory, being the physical path to the folder where your serving your friends site from. |
