A better alternatve to WebSTAR V is iTools 7.

The FTP server with iTools will let him set up as many users as he 
wants and confine each user to their own directory (more security 
then using Panther's FTP server).   So it will be just like what he's 
used to from CrushFTP or Rumpus.

iTools will let him use Apache, with all the set up and configuration 
via a browser-based GUI. (iTools works with Mac OS X client or 
server.)

And, best of all, Tenon is  happy to work closely with customers to 
help with the set up.
