About Novell Filr

Novell Filr lets you work with files in important ways:

Filr allows you to access, share, and collaborate on two key types of files:

Files in Net Folders

Novell Filr gives you easy access to folders and files on your corporate file system. Corporate files can be files on your home drive, files on a mapped drive, or files on a remote server. Filr gives you seamless access to these files, regardless of their location. The corporate files that you have access to are defined by your Filr administrator.

In Filr, you access these corporate files by clicking Net Folders in the masthead.

My Files

You can upload files directly to the Filr site for your personal use or to promote collaboration. You can create folders to better organize your files.

Files and folders that are located in your My Files area are visible only to you by default. You can make files and folders available to others by sharing them.

Unlike files in the Net Folders area, Files in My Files do not exist on an external server, but rather on the Filr server itself. You access these files by clicking My Files in the masthead.
