Hello Mukund.

Thanks for the response, It's very re-assuring to know someone out there cares. :) Thanks.

My last question, was your recommendation to set it up like this;

Folder = share because of the change you said was needed (this is my sub folder 1-6)

Folder 1
----Inbound
----Outbound

Folder 2
----Inbound
----Outbound

Folder 3
----Inbound
----Outbound

ect.... 


MY main reason for wanted to use this product is so the FTP/share drive manager has a nice pretty GUI to setup and configure the FTP side of the house. Using this tool is much easier than me creating a https page that does the same thing.

I have been using linux for 8 years, 3 of which I am a system administrator. I have not used many of the variety of GNU/Linux Distributions yet (have tried Red Hat back in the 8 era)

Thanks for the help!

It'll be easy to implement if you re-arrange the hierarchy of your
directories a little. Make them all top-level shares:

Share 1 Incoming
Share 1 Outgoing
Share 2 Incoming
Share 2 Outgoing

etc.

and set access control accordingly.

Great that you at least are a Linux guy :) You get updates from the
Openfiler project itself. Just like apt works for Debian and Ubuntu, try
yum with Openfiler. yum is used in many RPM based distributions such as
Fedora, CentOS, etc.
