</div>Access to upload files to <a href="http://files.kde.org" target="_blank">files.kde.org</a> will be done through SSH<br>
access to the system in question, to shell accounts. scp/sftp/fish can<br>
then be used to upload files (permitting the use of Dolphin to allow<br>
files, if you have the fish/sftp kio slaves installed). They would<br>
then be served under sub-urls of <a href="http://files.kde.org" target="_blank">files.kde.org</a>.<br>
<br>
At this time, it is a pure static file serving system (ie. not capable<br>
of executing any scripts). As KDE Sysadmin has not recieved any<br>
requests to setup Synchotron anywhere at this time, no instance exists<br>
at the moment. I don't know how much in the way of direct access to<br>
the files is needed by Synchotron.<br>
