Moodle 2.0 has plugins for external repositories, so teachers can use them to share resources.

 

Moodle 2.0 release notes - MoodleDocs

 

A Microsoft repository plugin for Office 365 (via the SharePoint system) is looking unlikely though, which is a real shame

 

If someone makes a Sharepoint repository maybe it could be modified to work with Office 365 but it's more in hope than expectation...

I've been meaning to research iFolder. It looks neat.

How did you get it running on Ubuntu? I only found SuSE references. Ideally I need it to run on Centos/RHEL

Well a while ago i used this guide

 

How to install iFolder on Ubuntu server

 

i dont think it works anymore so i had to bodge it a little. I was using a vps anyway so if i got stuck i could just change to suse

just use a VM if you have to, the system requirements are quite low
