[Xitami] Xitami Wish List

Very simple.

You add 101 files, not 2000.

Disable online administration and disallow the 
web admin interface for your VHosts, as it would 
render Xitami wide open to security leaks having web admin enabled.

As such, you point all AUT files for your VHosts 
to one single disabled admin file.

Voila, 99 files out of 100 removed.

As for the other 100 files, I find it extremely 
useful to have them in separate files, thereby 
simplifying the management of documents.

Besides, it is a very simple dead to write a CGI 
for your self, to run off of the root on the server,
to effectively write your own admin panel, which 
only you have access to and is hidden from
the publicly known view, by the documentation files of xitami.

As such you can in fact turn off the web admin 
completely, disable the LRWP from port 81, unless 
you use it for some ssl functions.
You should already have disabled the ftp, which 
is controlled from the default.cfg anyway, in a INI file style.

All of which is really simple to manage.

That's the way I do it at least.
Pretty simple and 99% of my work is done by remote control anyway.
In fact I have not had a monitor on any one of my 
servers for the past three years.
Except once, when installing a new machine 4 months ago.
