Can you please explain your setup situation better than you have done already? Are the files stored in ~user? -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Hi Odhiambo Yes I could have the files in ~user so I could use apache and userdir with htaccess. But I just wondering if any one had come across any nice web front ends for file management. The down loading bit of course is easy but a nice little upload feature would be handy. Would rather not use ftp as I think the ftp clients would cause confusion. As you say eGroupware would do it as would most groupware's but I dont want the extras that come with them. There are some nice php indexing scripts out there I am sure some will have an upload feature so I will have a look Having just read some of the other replies I think I will look into webdav as it sounds just what I am looking for Thanks Terry
