[NMLUG] FTP server

[havoc at harrisdev.com (havoc)]

that would be something "fairly easy" to do in a standard LAMP stack. I 
have the uploading/downloading/access control stuff built into the 
RealizationEngine. I don't, however, have a "files-only" or "ftp-like" 
interface for it. It's message-based, which is not going to be suitable 
if you're handling a large number of files.

I think I'll put that into my ideas folder for the RE, though. It would 
be a simple thing to add a link in a folder for "all attachments in this 
folder."

Uh, sorry I haven't been any real help, but thanks for the idea, Tim!
