URL File Access
Need to know how to make files available via a URL on the web.
there would be a folder that has a number of pictures in it.
Will send a CSV file to eBay that has a URL that point to each picture file.
Need to know how to make a windows folder accessible via the web so that eBays file exchange can access and upload the pictures.
Given that we use windows, assume this would be done with FTP. or IIS.
Do not believe I will have a problem port forwarding to an internal address with our Sonicwall. We have static IPs.
Appreciate recommendations on how to go about doing this.
Thanks

Can you use cloud service like DropBox or OneDrive or GoogleDrive? If so, it can simplify the process.

Anything external will complicate it in other ways.
We do have accounts on all. Could be a fallback if there is not other good way.
How would it work with onedrive?

This was the answer. Ended up buying a Synology NAS and did it with that.
Did not need much configuration and use 2 of of these NAS boxes, you can mirror this shared directory easily.
Thanks
