Is it possible to upload files to my own Freeola-hosted domain/site, via HTTP, using a CGI script?

I want to get something similar to X-drive or I-drive working, for my own personal use.

I have a freebie script, which should operate in a similar way to an upload to X-drive or I-drive, but can't get it to work, despite much tinkering. Is it likely I'm doing something wrong, or does Freeola's setup prevent such uploads?

TIA for any help.

CJH, any chance you could forward this script to me. This could be the answer I've been looking for.

TIA

Sorry - this is not for updating the site etc.

This is for the purpose of storing large-ish files (a few megabytes) temporarily. I can't use FTP because (a) work's firewall won't allow FTP, and (b) the files won't be uploaded from a Freeola connection.

Upload speed isn't an issue, as the connection from work is a high-speed leased line.

It's posible, I did it with a freebie scrit, but it was so slow, I wouldn't bother. User FTP and Freeola dial-up.
