Connecting from Other Operating Systems

The easiest way to connect to Files Pro from any operating system is to connect to the Web Interface with a web browser.

It is also possible to connect to Files Pro from any client software which supports the WebDAV protocol. For example you can use AnyClient (www.anyclient.com), which is a free Java WebDAV client.

On Linux you can use Davfs (http://dav.sourceforge.net/). If you have a recent version of the Gnome or KDE desktop you should already have WebDAV support built-in.

Gnome

  1. In Nautilus select Connect to Server from the Places or File menu.
  2. Select WebDAV (HTTP)
  3. For Server enter the IP address portion of the Files Pro URL e.g. 192.168.0.4
  4. Enter 80 for Port
  5. Enter a username if you set up remote authentication in Files Pro
  6. Click Connect

KDE

To connect form KDE enter Files Pro URL into Konqueror's Address Bar. You should replace http: with webdav: e.g.

webdav://192.168.0.2
