So far that works fine. webmin won't meet your needs? most distros offer it as an option in the package manager, it usually uses an embedded https engine this way and would need to be configured to allow from outside the localhost. Or the scripts can be downloaded and installed into apache's document root tree. ~snip~ Is it possible to run httpd as root? yes, set the user and group in httpd.conf to root then restart the server.
