 Hello,

 Is there any way to make the user home directories on a Linux system

 ways to make users access the data lying in their respective directories
 through a web browser. A simple option is to run a ftp server and use the
 FTP protocol through a web browser, which however, is the last choice.

 Alternatively, is there any application which can authenticate users and
 make their designated directories (which may or may not be under home
 directories) accessible through a web interface ?

 I would appreciate some suggestions or pointers.

You could try out WebDAV. (Apached + mod_dav).

I also got a few results for specialized file manager WebApps by doing a search
for web file manager.

Didar
