Firewalls on the servers?Which company?You need to add ports yourself otherwise a firewall would be useless and how should you do that without even knowing how to use ssh, using pico or restarting running applications.The only useful thing atm is EV1 ddos protection system, but it doesn't have anything to do with firewalls.

You obviously have no clue what a normal managed server is.You can use your panel like everywhere else beside you don't have to take care about security,configurations updates and installations which you obviously don't do anyway because you just use the admin panel.
Necessity demanded that I learn how to use SSH and mod configuration files. You?re right; I am no guru on the server side. Running websites often means wearing a lot of hats. Learning HTML, PHP, Installing Scripts with Plesk running, promotion, SEO, and a whole bunch more.

That?s why I?m hitting the books, have a Linux box on my local net.

You just can?t learn BIND, Linux, Apache, PHP, MySQL and best security practices in a couple days.
