Wget4web allows to add downloads to server, to view information about download status and to control it in browser. The program's interface is look like interfaces of ReGet and Downloader for X, what allow to control download of many files without review Wget logs (but if you want to do it, you may watch them in browser's window). Wget4web writes logs and can generate reports including name and size of downloaded files. You can control traffic which was got by each user. Users can download files without using shell (Wget4web use own user list) what decrease possibility of undesirable server usage

you need my patched version of the dialog utilitie! (see below!)
every user which should be allowed using the system needs 2 special directories in $HOME
a directory which is called "Download" where the files reside which the user is allowed to download
a directory where uploaded files are stored
you need a getty which picks up the phone, shows a Login: and logs the user into the system (mgetty for example)
if you want the user to choose if he wants a ordinary shell or the BBS, you need a script which is started in the .profile and which asks the user what he wants (there is one included in the archive I've made publicly available on this server). If you don't want to give a shell to the user simply start the bbs.sh from the users' .profile

CountDown Lite is a script that will update a log file for tracking the number of downloads of a file on your website. The website owner need only place a link to the script.
http://www.yoursite.com/yourdir/countdownlite.cgi
This will activate the script and it will do the following:
1. Add a count in the log file.
2. Auto-forwards the user to the download file.
3. The interface is seamless, the user isn't prompted for anything.

HTMLfixIT.com will not make any CGI script available online unless it runs in taint mode and strictures (and we use warnings and diagnostics during creation.)
Although not a guarantee of security, strictures and particularly Taint mode go a long way to insuring that the scripts can't be tricked into doing anything untoward to the server they are running on.
The plethora of truly badly written scripts available online is what convinced us of the need for this.
It is our opinion that NOBODY should be installing scripts on their site that do not run in Taint mode and strictures. (Taint mode can be determined by the -T at the end of the first line. Strictures can be determined by looking for a line that says "use strict;" near the top of the script).
Taint mode simply tells the Perl interpreter not to trust any data supplied by the user without testing it first.
Strictures is just a way to tell the interpreter to enforce good coding practises and not allow sloppy coding.

Funkboard [Demo] [Download]
A PHP-based message board thingy. It uses PHP, and works with the PHP 3.0.15, and possibly earlier versions. It needs a MySQL database for storing information. It creates pages with from a library-type thingy, which makes changing the style pretty simple.
G-Book [Demo] [Download]
A guestbook written in perl, which uses a flatfile database system thingy to store entries. Very simple, colours are easy to change, but the design would be harder to alter.
FTP Script [Demo] [Download]
An FTP script written with PHP's FTP commands. PHP must be configured with FTP for this to work. Allows you to log in, chmod, rename, delete files, upload files and create and delete directories. Remember: this does NOT work with windows nt/9x etc. as the client or server. If you can get it to work, please email me the fix.
Stuff-DB [Demo] [Download]
What can only be described as "a database of stuff". This is a perl based database system, and uses a flat file storage system. It can be modified for many uses, as a file link system, with a category of files, then a list of files in that category, and then specific info on each file, and a download link option. It could be used as a link storage system. Unmodified, it is set up to be a file download system, as in the example.
PHP Links Script [Demo(via Spaceports)] [Download]
A PHP links script, as the name suggests. It runs on PHP, but requires PHP 4 because of the use of the foreach($x as $y) thingy. It also needs MySQL for storing all the information. It has categories for links, and descriptions for each link, along with a counter of the number of times people have visited that link, there is also an admin system to create the categories, and edit inappropriate links.
