RE: [PHP] PHP priviledges

Hello, I have similar concerns with the host I'm trying out right now - though they're running Linux/Apache. My problem is with lack of security with shell access (i.e. access to other client's directories and key server files) and apparently lax monitoring of its privacy policies. I'm not a sys admin so I don't know exactly what is achievable, but I was surprised by the loose config of the server I'm on. I'm looking for a Virtual-Host provider running PHP/MySQL who has mastered the concept of providing a secure, shared environment to it's clients - including ssh/scp access restricted to only what's owned by me, secured administration tools, secured email communication with its clients, and complete logical and physical security of the server and data center. Does anyone have a recommendation? I've seen providers that address these issues for dedicated server configs - but not virtual server configs.

I don't like this because other user of that server can do the same as I. I have contacted with my host and they doesn't know how to prevent php/IIS to have access to other directories on the server, Is this possible?
