Oh. Well, look at webdav. This is something regularly done with webdav.

But I really think you should give both ftp and ssh a closer look.



That's precisely what WebDAV is for - and it has the advantage that client support is pretty widely available (built into Windows, MacOS, readily available for linux).

Server support is a bit harder to find. There's an apache module. But it might be easier to simply set up a subversion server - it comes with a built-in WebDAV server:
apt-get install subversion
plus some configuration.
