Web interface for backend file transfer


Hi guys,
Can someone tell me how I can go about setting up a basic apache webpage that would allow users to view files and folders on a server and transfer it from one directory to another? I know it doesn't sound very secure but this is an internal server so security is not a big issue as it is pretty secured in its network already.

We have users that need to move files from one directory to another and we'd like to give them some intuitive interface to do this rather than having them log in to the linux system and run mv/cp commands. They are not very linux saavy.

if you have other solutions for doing this please share. Thanks!

PS: The system is running CENTOS 5.4.
