hi everyone, want to know if any of you know of a script available that will allow me to have on my website a user login interface, and the users accounts will have files available to them to view.

the files are their own files. this isnt a file sharing service, this is for documents that are created for the customers. i want them to be able to login to the site and view thier files that are created for them. each account for the customer/client will have their files available for them to download and view. mostly doc and pdf files.

what, if any, pre made scripts are out that will allow me to do this?

Joomla, Drupal, and almost any CMS you can think about can do that

am i able to set permissions to what files each person can view?

basically im setting this up for clients to login to my website and they can view their documents that i have created for them. only with their logins can they view their personal files i upload to the server and allow them to view as a archive.

Yep with Drupal or Joomla, you can make any document available as public, to a user group or to a single user.

Can't you just put the files in any directory on your website and password protect it if you have cPanel? That is how I would normally do things.
