    Ok, I use godaddy, and they only gave me 1 ftp account (i got the deluxe package).
    I cant create ftp accounts, and that really pisses me off, I have 25 databases.

    What i want to do? I want to give my friends their space,

    myfriend.mydomain.com
    myfriend2.mydomain.com
    mybuddy.mydomain.com

    So if i could create a ftp account i would just have create their folders, set permissiones to the new users and boom!.

    Ok, godaddy hates me, :rolleyes: What I want to know....

    is there any script or something where my friends can submit their files to a specific folder???

    I could ask them to ZIP their website and i can upload it, but they want to update it everyday.

    Help :rolleyes: my best friend is here and he is telling me that geocities is better than me :D

    Hope you understand....

    Thanks.

    than you really suck man :D

    I don't have a link to a script you are looking for, but what you want is some sort of online file manager tool. I've seen those things fly around the internet, so probably some of them will allow multiple accounts + restrictions.

    google for "online file manager" and "php file manager"

    good luck!

    Drop godaddy as they also do not allow you to run many scripts you might want, and / or that could help you run your business.

    Get a reseller account at a place like ivhosting.com or interland.com
