I need a way to BROWSE on the server filesystem.

I can use the directory plugin in TT but before
trying this I would ask if any other solutions
are around.

In the Catalyst book written by Jonathan Rockway, an example implements a new Filesystem Model to read and write blog posts as files on disk. This is IMO similar in concept to the thing you are trying to do. Jonathan takes the example further with the Angerwhale module available from CPAN.

Since you need to "search" in files, another angle would be to treat the log files as tables using some kind of package based on DBD::File. Once that's in place, the rest will follow as a normal Catalyst application with a DBI-based Model.
