Managing Files 33
Working with Files on Remote Servers
Working with directories and files on remote servers is virtually identical to working
with them on local or network drives. The primary difference is that you need to
establish a connection to a remote server before you can work with its files.
The Allaire FTP & RDS feature lets you work with files on configured remote servers.
See “Connecting to Servers via FTP and HTTP” on page 39 for setup procedures.
If you set the Drive list to My Computer, you can easily access all your drives, plus
Allaire FTP & RDS servers, in the Directory list as shown in the illustration below.
The procedures for working with remote servers can be performed from either the
Files tab or from Windows Explorer. When you save files, changes are saved to the
remote server.
If you do need server access, you can clear the Options > Settings > File Settings >
Enable Explorer shell integration option.
