[support] A file upload page on my site..

[Michelle Ziegmann]

IMHO, the most simple and easiest way to do this is to use a content 
type with 1 file upload field. You can specify in the CCK field settings 
which directory the file will go. You can even use 
http://drupal.org/project/auto_nodetitle to remove the need to add a 
node title. Then you give those roles permission to create a node of 
that type.

Setup time: approximately 5 minutes.
