The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Creating an FTP site

Asked by jonnyjohan in ISPs & Web Hosting

I am not even sure if this is the correct topic area.  I have searched high and low for answers to these questions and I am hoping that someone here can help me (as has been the case in the past!!)

I'd like to create an FTP site and it seems the easiest way for me to explain this is to give an example.

For the directory structure I'd like to have a folder that I'll call "Master Directory", containing three folders "Vendors", "Customers", and "Archives". In the "Vendor" folder I would like to have folders "Vendor A", "Vendor B", and "Vendor C". In "Customers" folder I would like to have "Customer A", "Customer B", and "Customer C".

For the user structure I would like to have unique logins and user names for each "customer" and each "vendor" that will only give them access to their respective folder and no others (Customer A login directs access to only Customer A folder). And then there would need to be an "administrator" login which would have access to all of these folders, and the only login which would have access to the "archives" folder.

As for permissions, some of these "vendors" and "customers" would need to have different levels of access, some would only need download capability, and others would need download and upload capability.  Obviously the "administrator" would have all rights.  

I currently have some space hosted with Dreamhost.com.  It seems what I'd like to do is not possible on Dreamhost, but I am not positive as I have not gotten answers to my questiosn there.  

Can anyone help?  I admit that I am new to this but I am a quick study.  Online resources would be great! Information on 3rd party FTP software that will help with this is great too.  

You guys are all amazing and I appreciate so much your help and time!!
