Overall Goal
My goal is to create a control panel to manage multiple SA-MP servers using PHP with SSH2. I also want to have the users have access to ftp with their given username and password. I am not planning on having very many accounts to manage servers. Just about 2-3 accounts with 2-3 servers running.
What Should I Use?
Web Server? What is the best web server software that would allow the proper functioning of my PHP & SSH2 functions.
FTP Server? What is the best ftp server software that would be the best for this application.
Information
I am not stupid. I am pretty experienced with php, and pawn along with many other languages. I have the basic knowledge needed to run the Linux server. I have access to the server via SSH connection using PuTTY. I am currently running Debian 6.0 on the box.

hello austin. you must know php+mysql to make a control panel. Also it isn't so easy as it hears :P.Instal apache to your debian or apache2(webserver). for ftp you can use whatever you want.(filezilla is the best, but i don't know if it has linux version). If you have done everything, you can start coding. take a look at some free control panels, and learn from them how to make ur own.. if you make one send it to me..xD
PS: If you want help PM me..

Well, you see I have already created a SA-MP control panel before by myself. The only thing is I couldn't get the ssh2 extension on the Linux box working correctly. The FTP I could set up manually but I was just wonder what was the best software for this and also easy to work with. I have also heard getting Apache to work with SSH2 was difficult compared to other web server software so I was wondering what would be better then Apache to run the control panel. Also I do not need MySQL for the SA-MP control panel. I am not a MySQL guy myself. I know how to work with it and all and how to use it but I just prefer saving these flat-file.

Nginx/lighttpd would be a better bet for webserver, and vsftpd for FTP server. (filezilla is a FTP client!) Look at Westie's control panel PHP-SSH ideas...

Thanks that was the answer I was looking for. Although I already know how to use the ssh functions in php so no need to look at examples.
