hi, i have 10 websites on a particular server. Each site has its own user and is housed on the user's home directory. Currently, to maintain each site i ssh into it as that user and do the work. I also have to have root ssh'd in one terminal for restarting apache etc. This means keeping 11 terminals open and remembering which is which. Also when the net connection goes down i have to do a lot of work to relogin on each terminal. How safe would it be if i just used one terminal and su from root for each user as and when required. What are the best practices for such a setup?
I think GNU screen is for you :).
