Hello,

we'd like to have the possibility to upload to a random generated directory on the server,
e.g. (WebDAV) https://our.server.com/<randomnumber>/some.file

or a string configurable by the uploader.

Would you implement this for us in exchange for a certain amount of bought licenses or money?

Great idea! Anybody else interested in this feature? Would you prefer some alternative, like encrypted files with emailed password? (I'm responding to this poster via email as well.)

Also a very good idea.
Our idea up to now was to setup Apache2 webserver
with password authentication for downloading combined
with this random directory feature. Why this? So your staff can manage
and work with the files on the server with the OSX mounted WebDAV "drive".

Maybe this is a stupid question but is it even possible to use a r/w account for uploading and
send links with a second read-only account in the links, e.g. https://somerouser:pass@our.server.com/some.file?

You may be able to insert the user and password into Enclose-provided links once you've set up accounts on your server. I think you can define WebDav and regular web URLs differently so that the person downloading is not using webdav and has different (read-only) access.

Adding that as an Enclose feature sounds cool; I'll have to investigate what that would take to implement.
