Linux – Filesystem access through web interface

filesystemslinuxUbuntuweb

I have an SSH+Samba server so people can access its files from anywhere on the network.

I thought it would be also interesting to provide access through a web interface, so they can access the files even when they don't have access to the VPN or a Samba/SSH client. Something like the Ubuntu One or Dropbox web interface.

The http server could be on the same machine as the SSH+Samba, so it should just provide access to local files and some way to login with their username/password.

Someone knows any software like this?

There is the WebDAV protocol. It should be possible to use it to get web access to your data. There are also predefined WebDAV modules for Apache available.
