Recommendations for Web-Based Multi-User File Manager / FTP software?
Can anyone recommend Web-Based Multi-User File Manager / FTP software?
DETAILS: I have been using IDC File Manager for the past 100 years or so, allowing customers to upload large files that I can login & download, but have upgraded to a new server (dedicated LAMP) and can't quite figure out how to transfer IDC File Manager it over & make it work. (There's no readme/install.txt files in my installation, and maybe is about time to retire that SW anyway).
I thought about using box.com, DropBox, etc but since I have 200+ customer that are used to going to my website, clicking a link, logging in, & uploading, I don't want to change that process too much.
Thanks all for any assistance !

If this is a Windows then I suggest free software called HFS server
http://www.rejetto.com/hfs/
You can create real or virtual directories , assign rights to upload or download, hide folders and best part.... You can create your own users that has nothing to do (no connection) to your domain users so server is very secure and if for some reason and in some circumstances hacker will broke to your server he can't use HFS server credentials to go deeper :)
Another good think you can setup server to work on any available port your choice :)
