If your need is to do the upload as if it is part of your web-user's web
experience in your site (i.e.- you don't want them to use tools like FTPs
nor use a shell to drive ftps, since such will require ftp client software
to be existent and server side ftp site to be created)..
Well, based on my experience:
1) you will need to write an applet to allow user to select the file he/she
wants to upload from his/her client PC accessible drive.
2) you will need to use socket programming to actually send the file from
the client machine to the server. Details of the programming is:
2.1) Client applet will post a message to the server to tell the
server-side java component to start listening for a socket connection
request. JSP/servlet can be used to process the posted data.
2.2) Client applet will issue a socket connect request to the IP address of
the server
2.3) Upon acceptance of connection on the server-side, the client should
start reading & sending the data thru the opened socket connection until all
bytes were sent.
2.4) Server-side component should accept bytes received and save the file
somewhere on the server drive.
2.5) Close the socket connections both on server-client and close the
transferred file.
That is it. The task sounded so easy but just like what I discussed, a
little programming trick is needed. {:)
Have fun & good luck !!
