pure-ftpd remote admin?
 

How do I set up a chrooted virtual admin account on pure-ftpd so that it can be administrated remotely (add or kick users if needed, monitor speeds & transfers)? It's not meant for me but the guy who's supposed to monitor my ftp when I'm away.
Is it even possible?

I have just installed an internet server and am running a headless system and I use KBear via ssh. Its GUI and makes things really easy and because its ssh is very secure.

Can you use kbear to control the server? Ie add or kick users if needed, monitor speeds & transfers, and most importantly, do it NOT being root? That's what I'm after.
I don't want to give root perms to anyone except myself.

KBear can login via ssh (port 22). If you use ssh as root you are controlling the machine under encryption so it is very difficult for anyone else to pickup what you are doing. Effectively you are controlling the remote machine as though it were your own. You can do anything you would be able to do as root on that machine.

So basiclly, I'll just have to create a chrooted account, give it the proper permissions to administer the server (pure-ftpwho etc) and then ssh in? Root is not an option here :)

You can do it that way.
