Here's an example:

If you have a host that runs FTP daemons, make use of them. You can set up
(enable rather) an FTP server and then simply link to it, possibly including
the path and authentication details (if not anonymous access). The content
typically goes under public_ftp in your home directory assuming Apache.

Best wishes,
