RE: [cobalt-users] FTP as Admin...???

["Kevin" <owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a question on this, but have no problem so far.
I have only 1 admin account on my server.
When I setup a new domain name I have them pick a master username and
password, then assign it admin rights.

Is this not the same as this question keeps popping up here?

Thank in advance,
Kevin

Yes, this is true. The limit is 32 and it's actually a Linux problem
rather
than a Cobalt issue.

Here's a nice little treasure from the archives.

BTW, It's probably not a good idea to be FTP'ing in with your admin
account
anyway.
