I have actually refused to buy scripts in the past because the company selling them refused to let me install them myself.Originally Posted by Squirt
Even when I've had custom programming done, i always get the coder to install the scripts on their server first and tweak anything, only then will i ask for the script to be sent to me, along with a good set of instructions on how to install it.
After its up and running on my server, they get paid whats owed.
We work in a business where letting people you dont trust (or know very well) have access to your server is just crazy, one wrong move and they could, in theory destroy years worth of work in a few minutes and potentially put you out of business.
Actually, i lie thinking about it, i did once ask NatNet to create a new FTP username for this one programmer who only had access to a specific domain and only after i asked NatNet to do a complete backup of the domains content prior to me sending him the FTP info but, he only had upload permissions and didnt have delete permissions on anything.. If he needed something deleting or over-writing, he had to ICQ me to get it done.
