Title: question -please suggest - file server with attributes
Post by: larieu on September 23, 2009, 08:01:47 AM
I need for my smeserver one "application" preferred to be accessed by web interface to do the follows:

- logon with user/pass from standard SME-users
- store files with user/group rights
- for files - attach "attributes"
- search/sort files by "attributes"
- allocate quota for groups (preferred to be different from users)

the main purpose is as follows:
I have a group of users which must store files with "strange" names and extensions (jpg, doc, txt, xls, ods, pdf,....) and one easy way to find them back
I need at least following "tags" (attribute) for files: date, customer, customer internalID, tag1, tag2,...

and users must have one way to sort by any of this tags and/or search by any of this tags

first in my mind it comes something like "mp3" managers where you can sort/search by artist, genere, date of publishing, name of the song, favourite tag, ....

but I think lots of other ideas could help me

Thank a lot for your help

This is not possible. All web applications run as the 'www' user, and cannot create files owned by any user other than 'www'.
