I have a problem that begs for an FTP server to be set up. However, there are a couple of reasons why I do not want to do so. First, I am running non-server Tiger and therefore do not want to create and delete user accounts just to enable FTP. Second, I do not want the users to have to use an SFTP client (e.g. CyberDuck or Fugu).
My ideal solution would be to use personal web sharing. In the web space I would give each user a unique folder requiring a unique password to access personal documents. For example, Bradley would go to http://foo.dyndns.org/Bradley and be confronted with a login screen.
The hard bit is finding a tool that will enable me to do this in an easy way -- link a folder to a user login and password. I don't want the person setting up accounts to have to use an editor to add/delete user names and passwords to/from a PHP or text file. I would rather a friendly web interface take care of that.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Wade
