I'm looking for the same thing now...

In the past I've set up an account for web updates (ftp) and used chroot to put that account right into the HTML directory.

Been going through the manual to see if the ibay supports this - no luck so far.  FTP only does the files directory as far as I can tell.  Web developer needs access to cgi-bin and html...

yum  --enablerepo=smecontribs install smeserver-remoteuseraccess
