I have a server, it my own so I can configure it the way I like. I'm running Drupal 5 on Debian Linux, and the problem is the file upload. I have at my server a Samba3 file sharing and normal SSH-server. I can use the web-page front-end for uploading a file, but when I want to upload several files to Drupal, it would be more convenient to use Samba when at office and SFTP when out of office.

So is there any way (any module) to make the Drupal understand that some file at some place at server is actually the file I want to "upload" at to the site?

I can of course just move the file to Apache WWW-folder and hardcode any links at webiste to point the file, but it would be nicer to let the Drupal do the trick.

There is a module that is part of the audio module (audio_import) that does this for audio files... but I don't know if there is one that handles other types of files.

Ok thanks.

I kind of got around the problem using the Fileshare-module. It doesn't do exactly what I wanted, but it's good enough.
