Anyone know any good backend user online file manager?

Question

Hi

I'm looking for a backend system where your clients can login and upload files to your server, download files from the server and you can delete the users, create users, etc. I do not know the proper name for this kind of software. Maybe its called online file manager? Any recommendations? My server supports PHP, apache and mysq.

Thanks

Answer 1

I am literally doing the same thing right now.

Personally, I would cook my own up, as it usually needs to be integrated into your existing structure or application.

Give me some background information. What is this for exactly? How complex does it have to be? Is it being integrated into another application or is it a stand-alone? How experienced are you with php?

Edit

Hmmm, for a full management suite you might want to have a look at a for-sale solution. Something higher grade will save you tons of time in development and integration. A couple that I thought were pretty good:

Maybe you should have a look at IMCE, it is quite simple

For something more complex try this: http://drupal.org/project/webfm
