I need a way to let website users upload files to a dedicated ftp server. Files are huge, up to several GB, and simply syncing folders in web server and ftp server wouldn't work. Is there a module which allows me to do that? Ideally it would be something like dropbox module. Does anyone have experience with some non-drupal ftp front ends? Or should I simply use iframe?

Do you want to list these
Do you want to list these files in your Drupal site ie as attachments to articles, in views etc?
I'm curious about your idea to use an iframe. Are you intending to display a web directory of your files on the FTP server?
What is the actual technical or business requirement that you're trying to satisfy?
I won't be displaying these
I won't be displaying these files on the website at all. I just need a simple way for users to transfer files to ftp server.
The company I am building this website for, is a printhouse and they need to give their clients access for their ftp site. Files are sometimes huge and often they are working against the clock. Most customers use standalone ftp clients but some need to have a web interface.
Maybe something like this

I googled 'php FTP client' and got a few hits
