Integrating Aegir
This section of the documentation deals with integrating Aegir components with other services (as opposed to extending or overriding direct Aegir functionality itself).
Examples might include using Aegir's database to authenticate users based on their presence as 'clients' in the Aegir system, e.g authenticating FTP access to sites for clients that have those sites managed in Aegir.

Integrating Aegir with OpenSSH
Adam has written an article that explains how to hook up OpenSSH and PAM on your Linux server, so that you can authenticate your clients via the Aegir database and have them SFTP/SSH into your server and be chrooted (locked) into just seeing their sites (or a platform) with a restricted command(s) shell.
Integrating Aegir with PureFTP
Cafuego has written an excellent article that explains how to hook up PureFTPd and PAM on your Linux server, so that you can authenticate your clients via the Aegir database and have them FTP into your server and be chrooted (locked) into just seeing their sites.
