I agree with using "htaccess and cgi".
That's the easiest way. When the student uploads the file, have the cgi script scan it for a student number and file it
in the appropriate directory. htaccess is easy to get working,
and there are numerous ways to upload files to a cgi script using lwp. Just talk your professor into setting up a "password protected homepage" for each class. Just make sure
that the "storage directory for uploaded homework" isn't accesible by a browser, or you could get rampant copying. :-) | [reply] |
