Hi Johans,
this is normally done via the web server using the http protocol. To
read files, this can be done the usual way. Writing files is nore
complicated. There are two possibilities: PUT requests and POST
requests. I've attached a program that demonstrates hot to use PUT
requests. For configureing apache to accept PUT requests, see
http://www.apacheweek.com/features/put. Be aware that enabling PUT
incorporates security risks. For production uses, I recommend POST
requests. They also have security risks, but can be controlled much
better.
