I've decided to go ahead and do this, as their needs are not that great. What I'm asking, is how best to setup this situation. I've never played with jails or anything, but I'm not sure if I really need to go that far. I'm considering building a server that has ssh and sftp access. The plan is to allow them to upload at their pace, and provide next-day DVD/CD copies of their entire directory structure. Any advice on how to go about this? Thanks!
