Explore the possibility?
FileMan is installed on Linux Server (with all uploads on linux server).

The login button is inserted on a protected page on Windows server.

The Query On Following Possibilty:

The userlogs in with a valid username to the members page on Windows server and for uploading the file he clicks on the button (with the username and passwords as hidden values).

Would it be possible to prepend / append the Member Page UserID to the Filename being uploaded. Take following example:

filename (say file.doc) is the file which is going to be uploaded by say n users with user id of the format UserID (a four digit numeric value)

So if user 1 uploads the file the file on server is xxx1.file.doc

User 2 uploading the same file should have xxx2.file.doc as the filename on linux server and so on.

basically this is necessary as most of the site on windows is on asp and for this bulk file upload / download the linux server is needed due to higher space cost of space on Windows server.

Is the above possible, ie passing the UserID in the button as a hidden field and the same is used to append/prepend the filename being uploaded.

Help would be God Sent .
