What about WEBDAV on over https? Lock it down by 'Require User' or by IP or by any other apache authentication scheme?
You can even use apache 'ALIAS' to create locations to directories which are not strictly speaking under your docroot. Everything runs under http/s and thus would avoid firewall issues. For windows, you can map the 'web folder' and under gnome (I don't have any kde experience), you can use Nautilus to drag-n-drop files to the folders. You could probably do a WEBDAV setup over ~user home directories. I guess this is much more of a question than a suggestion I suppose; sorry. -daniel On Wed, 2003-11-05 at 13:03, Matthias F.
