    Hi

    When customers seem to signup they use file manager or ssh to delete everything except public_html in /home/username/

    This makes email account creation not work amongst alot of other things.

    Is there no way to restrict customers from deleting folders except from within public_html?

    There are the following ways:

    1. Revoke file and directory access
    2. User education
    3. Backups
