file server

[vhargon]

Hey,

Im working on a project where an iPhone client app creates a file(about ~3mb in size) then uploads it to the server. Which then alerts another client (push notification) so they can then download the file from the server. The client (without any networking) is done. So now the server.

Snow leopard is the desired platform for it to run on and objective-c the preferred language. I have never written a server on this platform and am not finding a lot of clear, current info on how to do what i want to do.

I have been looking into cocoahttpserver and wonder what peoples thoughts were? Im still finding my way around it. going through its posthttpserver example, is something like that the best option for something like this? Or is there something more simple? was thinking just running a ftpd and making the server app just scan directory for new files then respond. but thats a little messy haha.

Any help would be much appreciated.

thanks
