Question

I have a web application that needs to take a file upload from the user and upload it to a remote server. I can take input from user to server fine via file_field, but can’t seem to work out the next step of uploading from server to remote. Net::HTTP doesn’t do multipart forms out of the box, and I haven’t been able to find another good solution. I need something that will allow me to go from user -> server -> remote instead of going user -> remote. Anyone succeeded in doing this before?

I believe the attachment_fu plugin would allow for this:
