I think business requirements should be left to the knowledgable. Those are the things that typically drive decisions. Perhaps I didn't state it clearly enough (though I did), ftp was not an option and I didn't want to go into details because it was a waste of time. (No, Tom.. not nefarious.. just a waste of time.. decision made and it wasn't up to me :-) ) I'm still baffled that their are responses out there that follow precisely the opposite of what the business requirements dictate, such as an ftp server and client do not provide close to the functionality of the system that I was supposed to build. Especially on shared host systems. I do appreciate all the other helpful responses though! The roll your own server may take a front seat.
