For those using a NAS (Network Attached Storage), such as the Ritmo LAN server that I posted about many moons ago… There is a new program that allows you to mount an FTP server as a drive on Windows… http://www.netdrive.net. It supports block transfers of files, so you don’t need to wait for all of the file to be downloaded (e.g. for a preview of the first page of a PDF, or for the file icon to load, or to play a mp3…) before you can use it. Seems to work very well so far, far better than WebDrive… This seems to be unrelated to the Netdrive by Novell (which has been discontinued).
Yup. This blog seems somewhat dead. But we are just too busy caring for a little one… There’s much to talk about. When we have time… (yeh, that’s a famous saying…)
