Charlie:

I've enclosed a link to some technical info on XCOM which will run in a
LINUX environment (and others). We DO require a 'agent' on the SENDING
and RECEIVING side to provide 'guaranteed delivery', which we can't
provide unless we have the agents on 'each side'. If guaranteed delivery
isn't important to you, there are plenty of packages on the market that
are 'agentless' (and don't provide the guaranteed delivery that I know
of).

You're going to need something on the client side to authenticate with
the
server.  Why not use sftp, which is a SSH service?  The UI is just like
a
command-line FTP client, so your users probably know it.  All Linux and
most
UNIX systems already have it installed, and Windows users can download
the
PuTTY client, psftp, from here:

I've used it for years for just that purpose.
