Hello Everybody,

I have a Ubuntu server up and running fine.
I can access the files remotly via putty or winscr which is fine but i like to step it up and have something like whats available in windows home server setup.

In windows Home server, users can access there files via web access(https:\\).
I like the look & feel of what windows home server has in terms of remote access. Basically windows home server uses https:\\ to access folder/files and it looks nice too. lol

Is it possible to setup somethig like that on ubuntu server edition???

Thanks
R

I'm not exactly sure if this would do but I use this,

http://extplorer.sourceforge.net/

available to all users via a web browser, but i've never seen WHS in use, sorry

Don't know how advanced you are but basically install apache, PHP then drop the Extplorer folder into your web server, probably at /var/www
