this is quite subjective but wouldnt setting up an FTP server suit your needs better? Possibly try FileZilla Server.

If you are hosting files also then apache wouldnt be a bad choice for you.

  • http/s is my best choice because it works behind any firewall Commented Dec 19, 2010 at 20:56

Open source solution is WebDAV VFS gate, supported features:

  1. Available all file systems of Apache Commons VFS (smb,ftp,sftp,http,webdav,zip,jar and other).
  2. WebDAV (level 1 and level 2) compatible with Windows Explorer, GVFS and davfs2.
  3. Server implemented as library (jar) and web application (war).
  4. Application ready for use in web containers, such as Tomcat, Jetty, JBoss and similar.
  5. Configuring file system from servlet initialization parameters and java properties.
  6. Audit log of file operations.
