Hi

With "link" is that a link on a web page and not a link on your
filesystem? If it is on the same machine why not just browse the
filesystem or are you making a web application that need access from
other computers?

I use sshfs to mount mine medialibrary on my server. Not really what
you ask for but it works great and no need for a FTP server. You can
chroot the account on the server for better security and use public
keys for the user that needs access. You have to explain better what
you want to do.
