HFS ~ HTTP File Server / filezilla recommended HFS-Can I upload files & send a link to my users
« on: December 03, 2010, 02:23:42 AM »
filezilla user forum gave me a link to your site and suggested I look into HFS instead of FTP.
I need to send files (folders would be better) to users who are not tech savvy-they are more like consumers. They all have web browsers-mostly IE.
My ultimate would be to upload files to my server, then send them a link. When they click the link, it would bring them directly to the file/folder they need to download-or a screen with a list would be easy for them to see which is theirs.
I need to make sure users can only download their own stuff, but have no problem password protecting each file/folder.
Typically, a user will need to download 24-36 files all in one folder. So you can see why managing at the folder level would be better. I would rather not zip files-they get confused on how to unzip (I told you they were like consumers).
Cab HFS do this?
