I've just started working with drupal (v6.12) and am looking for a way to allow authenticated users to download files. There seem to be quite a few postings on this topic but many of these postings apply to older versions of drupal. Those that apply to version 6 seem to require CCK, views, etc - which seems unnecessarily advanced for what is conceptually a very simply task. I want to display a list of 5-10 pdf files on a page and users can download a file simply by clicking on its title/name. Is there a simpler way to do this that I've apparently not yet found? I am looking for suggestions/advice on how this can be done. I do not have any experience working with php/java.

Thanks

Ian

The simplest way would probably be to enable the upload module that is part of Drupal core. Then, give authenticated users permission to 'view uploaded files'.

I just tried attaching more than one file and this worked. Thanks for the suggestion.
