I'm looking for a way to serve up documents in Umbraco without using the media library. I'm trying to replace an old asp document library as part of a new Intranet project. I haven't seen any umbraco packages that do this, so I'm wondering if anyone knows of any good open-source .net apps that would do the job.
I just need a way to browse the directory structure of a documents directory and download/view files inside the directories.
You would need to create a custom tree in Umbraco to do this. I don't know if it is part of 4.0.x but I know in 4.1 there is a FileSystemTree which you would inherit from that is designed for this reasonably well.
Need a document manager suggestion/help

I would love to have a full-on umbraco-based file-system manager. (any more hyphens?)
A client recently pointed me to this control. http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/fileexplorer/examples/overview/defaultcs.aspx
It would be useful for front-end client file manager, but not so much for the back-end, though, it would work.
