Https File Transfer Server Software Needed

[humbletech99]

Hi,

I have a requirement for an Https file transfer mechanism and am currently looking for software to do this function. I want the software to be ideally meet the following requirements:

- free/open source
- run as a service on either windows or linux (preferrably the latter)
- allow people to send files to a other people
- must be secure and use https through a standard web browser
- be very simple for clients to use (somebody should be able to pretty much go to the web page, select the recipient, choose a file and click upload)

We have an in house written web application that does this, and although it seems quite nice it does have it's problems, so I'm looking for something standard on the internet to replace it.

The current mechanism accepts the file, and then emails the recipient with the https link to download it.

Surely somebody must have had this requirement before for simple quick document exchanges from outside the company to inside or vice versa that don't use fully blown sftp servers or the like which requires both sides IT departments getting involved to set up both ends.

Does anyone have any recommendations for server softare on either windows or linux which can do this?

Best I can do but win/mac only:

Looking at this myself. Otherwise, I would use secure ftp.

Don't bother. It's P2P.

Ok, found this:

CC File Transfer, which is a web based file transfer software, can help you exchange files with your friends easily, or transfer files PC to PC easily yourself. Once you drag file(s) into CC File Transfer software, you or your friends can download them in browsers. If you need to transfer file or build up file sharing web server, you need CC File Transfer software. Now supports Windows Vista!

ironically that is quite close but seems orientated towards home users, and may not be suitable for business purposes, especially when a client connects and sees something like "Exchange files with your friends easily" !

There's allways encryption.
I guess your on your own in a linux environment then.
