 I know that ANITC magazine advertises a Kermit server which works with 
Flash. It is called REMOTE CONTROL ACCESSORY & KERMIT PROTOCOL. While it
doesn't appear to be more than a file server it does have the nice feature
of costing only 24.95. It does require Flash however.
 You can use the public domain program Citadel to create directories 
indirectly by creating directory rooms if you config it to handle remote
sysop functions. You can then use xmodem to put files into your directory.
I mention this with some trepidation as I have not used Citadel in that
way.
  You can also configure Citadel to run a shell program like ASHELL and
escape to it remotely. I also have not tested this. Citadel may be obtained
from a number of sources and is public domain, so probably worth at least
further investigation.
