Hi All,
I'm looking for a file repository contrib or solution. I want to use an ibay for file storage and then have a browser accessible interface for users to upload and download files (like box.net or mediafire.com). I'd like it to be a forced https connection too.
I've looked at a few PHP file managers things that are single index.php files, I place them in the ibay's html directory, and the downloading part works fine, but the uploading part doesn't work in any of them and I assume this is a permissions issue.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

dtech, a little search in the forums and in the wiki give me this (http://wiki.contribs.org/Webshare) link
and here (http://forums.contribs.org/index.php/topic,46399.msg227523.html#msg227523) you can find the way to use an ibay and SME's users with webshare (it's in italian and it's a PoC, tested a bit..)

You can also install the mod_dav contrib and convert your ibays to DAV enabled ibays, see http://wiki.contribs.org/DAV

...or you vould install the webshare contrib and create multiple private webshare upload sites, although by default files are saved in /opt

mary, I already suggested smeserver-webshare to OP.. and a custom template (plus some new db values) to use it with SME's users :-)

Thanks Stefano, I decided to go with DAV. I used to use the webshares contrib for other purposes and never realized it could do uploads too.
So, using DAV I see that I can only connect via https, and that authentication is done using an SME username and password. I do not have the ibay password protected, and am wondering if it should be. Thoughts?

Is anyone maintaining the Web Shares contrib anymore? Will it be obseleted by SME 8? I ask because I've been using it and have found a bug and some spelling/grammar issues.
The bug: Firefox doesn't handle files with spaces in the name, everything after the first whitespace is truncated, so this change needs to be applied to the /opt/webshare-tools/phpfm/incl/libfile.php (and any existing instances in web shares that have been created already):
Original, line 42
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$filename");
New
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"$filename\"");
