Hi,

I'm looking for a possibility to  load a lot of (>50) small files or just some 
big (>1 GB) files into an Item of DSpace. Loading them using a HTML form is not 
a good solution for both cases. Does one had the same problem already? Does 
anyone knows a solution for this?

The best idea I had yet is to setup an ftp server on the same* server DSpace is 
running. When a user wants to publish data into DSpace he/she can either upload 
files using the web interface or may choose files out of his/her user folder on 
the ftp server. DSpace then uses these files as if they had been uploaded by 
the web interface. Before I start to write code I would like to know if anyone 
else has done something similarly or has a better idea for the problem 
mentioned above?

Of course I won't use unencrypted ftp, but for the DSpace part it is not 
important if the files where uploaded using sftp or ftp-ssl. We are still 
setting up our DSpace repository, currently we are running tests using DSpace 
3.1 and XMLUI.

Regards,
  Pascal Becker


*Either the ftp server and DSpace runs on the same machine or both uses the 
same network storage so that DSpace can read the files uploaded using the ftp 
server.
