inetserver asp components: Hi ,

I have a requirement where i need to upload big files to the server
through a web browser. Something like a file upload in mail
applications. Can someone please suggest a way to do this using asp?

Thanks
shailesh

Use a file upload component to handle the uploads and make sure that IIS
doesn't restrict the file sizes more than you want it to. Sample components

I used ASPUpload (mentioned on Ray's site).

It worked with "big" files, up to 24 MB with no problem. I think it can
handle far bigger files than that (what do you term "big"?). We had
problems when using this when the users came through a proxy server.

Otherwise, you could use FTP or (for really big files) HTTPS. I say that
HTTPS is better than FTP in that sometimes the Command channel with FTP can
drop if little activity.
