Avi, I was thinking of something like that as a basic solution too but didn't know where to start to be honest, I have shellinabox running so I suppose a script which allows a file to be uploaded and transferred would suffice. The storage could then be limited by adding limits per users on the server itself.
I have always meant to learn python or similar so I suppose now would be a good time to start, it can't be any worse than doing this lot: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEC/CDInstall :) Dave On Mon, Jun 20, 2011 at 12:57 PM, Avi Greenbury <li...@avi.co> wrote: > Dave Hanson wrote: > >> To summarise what I'm after: >> >> - The storage must be accessible from any browser as many networks >> block >> ftp ports etc or only have 80& 443 open. >> - Have individual profile spaces (So, Storage limits can be applied to >> a >> particular user, other users cannot access files that are not their >> own, >> that sort of thing) >> - Not have speed restrictions, the transfers must be as quick as the >> network allows. >> > > My first, entirely uncloudy, thought is to have sshd listen on port 80, a > web server on 443 and write a client (a short bash or perl script) that > rsyncs stuff over ssh. > > I might be highlighting my unfamiliarity with dropbox, however. > > -- > Avi > > -- > ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com > https://lists.ubuntu.com/**mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk<https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk> > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/**UKTeam/ <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/> > -- Best Regards, Dave Hanson
