I have an interesting requirement: There's various files on the same S3 Bucket. The task is to restrict access to the files on a per-file basis using usernames and passwords.

I tried using an FTP server and s3fs for the job but the connection time is way too long. I know s3auth.com can be used to restrict access to the entire bucket, but i need to restrict access to each file (Only one randomly generated username has access to any particular file)

Use S3 ACLs. They're object (aka file) based.

ACLs are resource-based access policies that grant access permissions to buckets and objects. For more information about managing access permissions with resource-based policies, see Overview of Managing Access in the Amazon Simple Storage Service Developer Guide.
