Chris,
Thanks for the response - so at least I had not missed anything in the
documentation.
I was looking to see if JXplorer would server as an admin interface to our
directory- at least until we get the planned web UI in place.
If you think this could be more generally useful, I would be more than
happy to do a bit of testing when yo have something ready.
Thank you - Richard
