Hi!

The users of my department wants a "easy" way to exchange files with
poeples not running a AFS client.

Has anyone a idea of what works best for it?

I first thaught about filedrawers - but it does not fit perfect.
One point: I cannot limit filedrawers to a special path of the cell, or?
E.G. filedrawers should only be able to reach all dirs under
/afs/cgv.tugraz.at/filedrawers/ and no other paths of the cell.
Another point: users without account at our cell, how do they get files
and maybe upload files for a special user?

Maybe I want a perfect solution and it is yet not available...
FTP is already applied, but upload is a problem and "personal" files for
users outside, to be secured by a password...


MfG,
Lars Schimmer
