for our needs and it's split in two parts. I first wrote a lot of small
scripts that do only a specific task and are controlled by command-line
arguments. This backend was done in Perl, because I felt familiar with it
for shell tasks at that time. I could have used PHP or Python (if I knew
that better). Then I wrote the frontend for it in PHP.
In my eyes this is a bad idea. There is no direct interfacing between the

two. The backend takes the commands from a text file that the frontend
writes. One could also interface via database. There is no way to smuggle
any system commands in because system commands are never carried out
directly.

Instead of writing it all yourself, have you looked at ISPConfig? I have
switched to ISPConfig (2) for our newer virtual machines last year and
it's working really well. Although it's not as custom as my own interface
I decided to go with that for our reseller customers because it's closer
to what other interfaces look/do/provide and it would have needed a lot of
extra coding to add this all to my own.
