Hi,
I've looked at a number of options, but none seems to provide exactly what I need. I want a simple html/php based file sharing app with:
User accounts with passwords
Groups
Folders with read/write permissions dependant on groups
Ability for users to upload and download files.
Support https
That's pretty much it, but for some reason nothing I've found really allows doing simply this. It seems like something that others would have had a need for, so I'm wondering if anyone here knows of such a product?
Thanks

It's not out there because it's not a good way to develop P2P applications.
PHP is a server-side scripting language. If you are developing a client-side program such as a peer-to-peer network, then it's common sense to use a language that could allow peer-to-peer connections (such as C++ or VB). Going client -> server -> client really defeats the whole purpose of peer-to-peer, because as I just mentioned it's peer-to-server-to-peer.
It may be out there though, so be sure to check Hotscripts.com.
