>From our experience as a company working with Alfresco, I would also suggest installing that and seeing how it goes. It is a portable java webapp running under Tomcat which implements not only WebDav and web-interfaces (own and sharepoint-like), but also many commont protocols - FTP, NFS, SMB/CIFS - to access your stored files. Hierarchy of "workspaces" may be protected by ACLs, and it is not difficult to add some special triggers (i.e. when an XML file is saved to a certain directory, the server calls some XSLT transform on it so a PDF file or whatever pops up in another directory). All saved and committed files are versioned. At first I was reluctant to abandon ZFS snapshots, kernel NFS and CIFS in favor of some clunky web-app, and many of our production files are still in ZFS, but at least as far as Unix integrations like homedirs goes - it is possible. Wouldn't vouch for access speeds, like building a kernel over such NFS homedir, though. For us it is mostly static content such as internal docs and published distros, or as a storage-with-webservices for customers.
