Some of my customers cannot use FTP from their offices due to security restrictions.strange. have you tried both active and passive ftp ?
I have to offer them the possibility to download files using the HTTP protocol.use webdav. there is a webdav example in the tomcat distro.
with webdav, users can mount directories on their harddisk
over http (using windows' "webfolders" or "connect to server..." on macosx,
or using several available clients).
I suggest you create a tomcat context on their home directories that is webdav-enabled, with all methods restricted, and another context for their "public" site, without webdav. their passwords-logins will be read from the tomcat-users.xml

ps. the webdav implementation on tomcat is a little fake, but it does support up- & downloads, move, delete etc.
good luck, *pike ======= + give luck a chance
