Whats the version of SSH I know with the latest stable release from
www.openssh.org you need to do nothing to have sFTP running.

You need to use the Enable Shell login check box in the GUI for
one to say which Vsites you will allow SSH access and which not to and you
will also need to allow the same for each user ie. the Shell login check
box.

Depends on your level of passwd security and if the GUI is running in a
SSL session or just as standard session. You should be running the session
in a SSL 128bit session and that would be at this point as secure
physcially that I know of to protect the GUI, if anyone knows of any more
I would to learn. Then it just comes back to how secure are your password,
are they UPPER CASE and lower case and special chars like !(^* or is your
password "fred".


Hope this helps.
