Hi, I need a way to upload files to a remote Apache Web Server. Can you guide me on the best option? I want to avoid setting up a separate FTP server on the same box if possible.
I have seen some options while browsing on the net: 1. WebDav - some sites say that it is an old protocol and performance on WAN would not be good 2. NETBIOS shares - as it is a windows server, Netbios may work. But performance on WAN connections is speculated to be bad. 3. Enable FTP protocol on Apache using Mod_ftp. Haven't managed to successfully configure this module yet. Also note that the file uploads will be via a JAVA application (not servlet/manual uploads). So whatever is the option, it should enable uploads via a java application. The files to upload will vary from 1mb to 30mb to upto 100mb (rare). Average size would be 5mb. WAN connection would restrict bandwidth to 30-40kbps speed per connection. So the option should be able to sustain a file upload on such a slow WAN connection. ______________________________ Sudip Kumar Bhattacharya This e-mail (and any attachments), is confidential and may be privileged.
