Hi,
Imagin the following situation: You want to have a central place to put your files. Any file. If you have a server on your network, you can just create a directory, then map it to a drive disk on your computer ... as simple as that.
Now imagine you want to do that, but the server is in your home ... so you need to have a software that can provide a layer, so that you map a drive, but the software will provide some internal driver that can ftp up and down the files ... so you could for instance open documents directly at home, and no matter where you are on the globe, if you have web, you would be able to access your files and work on them.
Some notes:
1# FTP is a File Transfer Protocol, so I couldn't edit any file changes using it. So I would have to use another protocol, or that "layer" software would be responsible to copy a file to temporary, so I could edit, then it would upload the file back to it's destination when done saving ... but this would be very difficult to manage from the software point of view ...
2# I would like to avoind setting up a VPN (which would in fact work as I intend, AFAIK).
Any software (free or payable) available?
Thanks
