Cross-Drive

With Cross-Drive you can switch-off your ftp and do more.

Manage your webspace with ease. Access your files where ftp is not available, i.e.behind firewalls.

Cross-Drive is a web-based file management system. Installed on your webserver Cross-Drive allows to manage a large amount of files stored in directories on a server computer. For better file management zip-archives can be created and extracted. Additionally, urls can directly be downloaded to Cross-Drive without the detour along the private PC. Even bookmarks can be created.

Cross-Drive requires a standard webserver (i.e. Apache) and Perl to be installed. If installed, your files are accessible via http or https without any plugins.

• Create files, and directories.
• Edit, view, copy, move, rename, and delete operations.
• Search for and in files.
• Set directory and file attributes.

• Download urls directly to the server, including cookie management.
• Create bookmarks.
• Many Options, like Netscape/Mozilla compatible cooky-file management.
• Secure https communication enabled.

Since Cross-Drive is written in Perl, it can be extended to your requirements.

Cross-Drive is easy to install. A simple setup script will question the necessary parameters and guide you through the installation process.

System Requirements: Standard webserver with cgi configured to execute Perl, Perl 5, Linux, and Zip/Unzip.

Most Unix derivates should work without changes. Some Linux installations miss Zip/Unzip programs being installed by default. Ask your provider or technical support. Installations on windows are not tested yet.
