Summary:The European Light Dosimeter Network (ELDONET) project has been designed with the purpose of establishing an efficient system to monitor solar radiation in Europe, in as many as possible locations. This paper describes the structure of the server that collects and processes the data acquired by the different stations belonging to the network, and makes them freely available on the Internet to the scientific community. The server is able to receive data either via FTP from the Internet or via modem and to process them looking for errors or inconsistencies. Moreover, it automatically generates graphs, Web-pages and FTP archives. The server has been active for some years in testing mode and is now fully operative.
