Godaddy Server Setup

My client has a Godaddy server that he got recently. I have already set up the nameserver.. I figured out how to add domains/sites I think through their Simple Control Panel (SCP).

The issue is that my client has a lot of sites that I will be importing into his server, and right now the SCP creates a new ftp user for each domain.. which is fine, but I always want one master ftp account that I can log into, and see every site available to manage.

So I guess I just need help setting up the server (or adding the account via shell) to allow me to have 1 main FTP account along with the individual site accounts. I will also want 1 global mysql user/password as well.

The server is running CentOS.. I’m a programmer, not much of a *nix backend guy unfortunately..

I will not except any bids unless you tell me your experience with Godaddy servers and their SCP and managing CentOS via shell. I’m assuming if you are familiar with managing CentOS, this should be a fairly quick and easy job. I may have more for you in the future as well!

However can start right away, and for the best price will get the job.

If you know what you are doing, this probably should not take more than 30… 20… maybe 10 minutes. The server is created, I already created the nameserver, just need to add the ftp and mysql account.

  1. Great stuff, thanks. Do you use many Magento extensions? The company I work for used many that really helped to speed up page page times. It took a very long time to get right and function to our needs but now it’s perfect. Saved hundreds on webserver charges by having it in the cloud! Thanks, Kevid.
