Seeking for a File Manager which could do few neat tricks.

1) It could connect to FTP Server automatically - yes, the users can NOT see the username/password but they could do normal file operations (download, upload, delete, etc)
2) Directory restriction.

I'm confused there there aren't program yet like this, I tried googling and searching this site for hours...

Most ISP comes with FTP account, but you don't want to tell it to others because with same user/password you can do anything else as well. But if you could have a system, where user can't see password, you could have filemanager on your FTP, and of course directory limitation, so you can't change dir to / and see "public_html" etc. You could just be in like "Friends" and its subdirectories, you couldn't change dir to parent...

Problem with current File Managers: PHP Safe Mode, all files become owner www-data and I cannot do anything with them.

What do you think?

You could try Invision Power File Manager. I'm not sure about the features, but it looks like a prety good script.

Thanks for replying.

Unfortunately IPFM also operates under PHP so it has same problems than all others: file / directory owner becomes www-data and I cannot modify them.
