If you trusted two or more clients with the site admin privileges of an anon
FTP site, they can share it.
The "incoming" directory can't be accessed except by the site admin.

IIRC someone may have mentioned using a CRON to move files from an incoming
directory someplace else. I haven't played with setting up any
subdirectories under incoming to see how that would work with a CRON job to
move those files to the proper site directories.

I didn't read Jeff's post as a flame. However, the mentions of
cobaltracks.com was getting a bit deep and replies to someone looking for
opinions on hosting should probably be made off list since they're really
loaded with subjective views and there's no way to screen out the hype from
the legit opinions.
