I'm also guessing like you, it might be to do remote network drive. So far i've not touched it because i never really knew what to do with it. Can I do the same just by mapping a network drive? I'm asking cause I'm a noob at this Regards Lee To be honest, i'm very noobish about this webdav thing as well. I would like to just open the file directly from the drive edit it and close it. My problem is when I'm at work I like to access my drive and files remotely without having to download-edit-and then upload with an ftp client. WebDrive does not automatically detect HTTP proxy settings, and they have to be configured manually.Woozel wrote:Hi Moogle I think you now a lot more about this than me. The WebDrive cache should be large enough to hold the files you wish to upload. If your profile is on a network drive, has limited space, or has a space quota, it is recommended that this cache moved to a temporary folder on a local hard drive that does not have such restrictions. Normally this cache is set to a folder in your Windows profile. WebDrive uses an on-disk cache to buffer data transfers. WebDrive automatically retries uploading files up to 5 times if they are interrupted or fail, unless the cache is cleared by either logging off or shutting down. When in reality the process is still working in the background, and may be interrupted by logging off or shutting down the workstation. WebDrive caching does not truely speed up data transfer, it copies files to the cache and uses this cache to do the data transfer process in the background, this can lead to mistakenly believing that a data transfer process, particularly the uploading of large files, has completed. Configuring this cache is very important to WebDrive's performance and reliability, see below. WebDrive uses a on-disc cache to speed up data transactions between the local workstation and the remote webDAV site. Overall WebDrive is a a good product that integrates well in your windows environment.
