(This feature will be available after v1.9)

A small, non-comprehensive list of client apps, aside with their pro's or con's:

• Network folders in Windows (2K/XP/2K3/VISTA)

Pro: Available on a lot of computers, ease of use

Con: Auth problems, you need to ensure you have the right version of the msdaipp.dll file to show displaynames

• Netdrive (Webdrive) - Novell tool

Pro: More robust than native implementation of WebDAV on microsoft platforms

Con: Does not show displayname, Webdrive is not free (as in beer)

• Firefox plugin (http://webfolder.mozdev.org/index.html)

Pro: Cross platform, works in Firefox

Con: Read-only access :( (big con to me...), does not show displayname

• Red Drive Connect (http://www.jscape.com/reddrive/)

Pro: Does show me the displayname, integrates in windows explorer as a folder at the same level of your other drives

Con: Not free, but it is free (as in beer), I cannot upload any files using this tool, so not useable :(
