Now that you've reminded me, I've used a similar tool called AutoIndex 
(https://sourceforge.net/projects/autoindex/) -- which has the advantage 
of also allowing uploads. There are a couple of downsides (running a PHP

resource limits on the upload, rather simplistic interface), but if 
properly configured and monitored it might help.4
