| Is there anyway to setup the ftp program that came with apache2triad to allow users to login to a certain folder and be able to execute a exe file that it run on the server? |

to login to a specifc folder yes , that should be implemented in PHPsFTPd soon but as for executing a file , you are either inocently dumb or maliciously bold
remotely executing a executable on the server side is a security hazard |

| acually it was for a game server i used to run. i was going to set it up to let the zone owners upload there files to one folder and execute there bots from another, but set it so they couldn't upload to the bot folder. That way i wouldn't have to worry about anyone uploading a virus on my server and execute it. |

You can execute external programs through php (http://us2.php.net/function.exec). 1 thing to keep in mind though, you may want to shut these programs down at some point. Also might wanna set a limit to the # of programs, too many and eveything will bog down.
Also, you might wanna password protect the the scripts.
And FTP is just for File Transer. |
