We think DropBox is great. One thing to watch out for is using a dropbox folder for a web site. This is what I mean: We have a web site on Win2003 with C:\Apache2triad. Works great and easy to set up for many domains to share a single IP address. If you drop Apache2Triad into your DropBox, the web site will not work. You will get a message about illegal redirection or something like that. We are going to try to put the dropbox on a different drive and so it is a copy of the C:\Apache2triad and see how that works. Not sure how this might affect other things.
I know when you move a folder to your dropbox on the same drive, any shares you have are broken. You can re-share them after you move them to the dropbox and they work fine on the local network. No doubt that dropbox is a very nice product. You just need to be sure you have good backups before you begin moving things into and out of the dropbox. ----- Original Message ----- From: "MB Software Solutions,LLC" <[email protected]> To: "ProFox Email List" <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, May 13, 2010 10:12 AM Subject: Re: Dropbox and large files Kevin Cully wrote: > Yes, large along the lines of hundreds of megabytes. <snipped> You wouldn't want to use this with active/open foxpro free tables, would you? -- Mike Babcock, MCP MB Software Solutions, LLC President, Chief Software Architect http://mbsoftwaresolutions.com http://fabmate.com http://twitter.com/mbabcock16 [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/00ed01caf2c2$7bec6e70$7a00a...@w2k3s02 ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
