Not that I've heard of. An alternative might be to create an HTML page that lists the contents of your FTP server. People can search the HTML page for the files they are looking for and can they get at the files through FTP.

I've just finished an intranet (behind the firewalll) website from which we are using anonymous ftp to file transfer.
We thought this would be an easy way to share files across the ocean since I don't have dhtml experience or capability of putting a search on the website itself. The downside is that there is no search capability (that I know of)where users can look for specific files within the ftp site.

Is there any software out there that will enable a search engine to run through our ftp site from the folders view in the browser window?
