 * Hi, I have a large number of documents and visio designs (100+ in quantity and
   5GB+) I wish to be made available for download from my WP site. The documents
   reside on a local file server, and I want to avoid uploading them onto the server
   hosting the WP site, due to disk space, backup times, version control, etc..Is
   there an efficient way\plugin I can use to share these files via my WP site, 
   without uploading them to the WP server?

 * I have the same question but my site is hosted on the same server as the files
   what plug-in would work for this.
