WebDrive integrates WebDAV, FTP, or SFTP servers into the Windows desktop by mapping them to a network drive letter.
Files are transferred by simply saving them to a drive letter - there's no need to run a separate FTP/SFTP client.
WebDrive instantly web-enables any Windows application by providing the ability for these applications to directly open files on web servers.
WebDrive can connect to WebDAV, FTP, SFTP(*), and HTTP servers supporting Microsoft FrontPage Server Extensions.
Here are some key features of "WebDrive":
· Collaboration
WebDrive supports Web-Based Distributed Authoring and Versioning protocol (WebDAV). By mapping a drive letter to any WebDAV compliant Web server, WebDrive will allow you to lock files, modify them and then release the locks so that others may review and update the files. By using WebDAV locking concepts, WebDrive users ensure data integrity.
· Security Features
WebDrive has built-in support for the industry standard SSL protocol. When used in conjunction with secure Web servers, WebDrive will open an encrypted tunnel between the client computer and the remote server giving you secure transmission of critical data over the Internet. WebDrive can be used as an efficient alternative to an expensive corporate VPN. Install the WebDrive Client and an SSL enabled server and WebDrive can act as your company VPN.
· DOS/Legacy Support
Once WebDrive has mapped a drive to your server, you can access it like a local drive. Use a DOS-Prompt to use commands such as copy, xcopy, mkdir, dir, move, etc. As the Internet grows, DOS based and other legacy applications are quickly being left in the dust, primarily due to their inability to access data over the Internet. WebDrive can breathe new life into these applications by providing DOS based Internet file access.
