I was wondering what procedures/guidelines are used to allow general users to 
place files on an anonymous ftp server (placed outside company firewall)?  The 
incoming directory allows uploads but does not allow downloads.  I'd like to 
be able to allow general users to post things directly to the pubs directory 
but am unsure on the best way to do it.

Any suggestions?
Kevin
