F*EX

F*EX (which stands for Frams' Fast File EXchange) is a cool, free tool that lets you send really big files from one computer to another. It works on any platform and is open-source, which means anyone can use it without spending a dime! Built using Perl, HTML, and JavaScript, this web-based service makes file sharing super easy.

Features of F*EX

This app can handle files of almost any size you throw at it. It's based on UNIX and has some neat features like auto-notification for the person you're sending to and auto-deletion after a certain time or once they download the file. Plus, it supports streaming and comes with REGET and RESEND functions, so you can pick up where you left off if something goes wrong!

Sending Files Made Simple

You can even send files to multiple users at once without taking up extra storage space. Best part? You don't need admin rights to use most of its features—just when you're setting up F*EX accounts. Users with full permissions can create sub-users who can only send files back to them.

Admin Controls

If you're an admin, you've got some cool options too! You can let users sign up themselves or allow anonymous uploads for LAN users. You can also set it up so that people can upload files without needing authentication.

Getting Started with F*EX

The best thing about F*EX? All you need is a web browser and an email program! It works great with all modern browsers and email clients on Linux, BSD, Solaris, Windows, and Mac OS X. And since it's an HTTP service, there’s no need for fancy firewall setups or extra software—it runs smoothly on both 64-bit (x86_64) and 32-bit (x86) systems.
