• Create/delete/update a server file within the Documents Directory
• Create/delete a directory within the Documents Directory
• Upload "most recently changed" files to another server via FTP, preserving the directory structure
• Query all documents in a "directory tree" for one or more terms.
• Version control of files (if WebDAV is enabled)

Below is a sample of the Document Manager browser interface. Clicking on the icon to the left of the file displays the file in your browser; clicking on the folder icon changes to the selected directory.

Important: The interface displayed below illustrates the Content Versioning functionality enabled when WebDAV is enabled. This interface is available from the /sysuser/docmgr/ forms. To restrict usage to this interface and prevent possible abuse, make sure to set your admin account password and secure the System Administrator IP in the config/config.ini to those computers which you will use to access the server with. For added security, you should change the System Administrator account to a user other than admin. Finally, when WebDAV is enabled, user accounts have access to these same forms. To modify content, users must have READWRITE FTP priviledges on the directory (from the config/passwd file). Further per-user access controls can be enforced via security.ini or .htaccess policies.
Warning: If you modify the Documents Directory in the config.ini, the corresponding FTP Document Directory in the user's passwd file must be modified to correspond to the change. Specifically, you will likely want to change the admin user's directory from /docs/ to /.

FTP To...
The FTP To... feature allows the document manager user to upload "most recently changed" files to another server via FTP, preserving the directory structure. No version control information is uploaded via FTP, only content files. This allows users to use the Sambar Server as a development server then upload files to a production server.

Clicking takes you into that folder

Filename = Clicking on the file name itself takes you to Edit the page

Clicking gives Information, properties, and options for the file

Edit = a text editable version with the raw HTML code. Always a good choice.

ieEdit = What You See Is What You Get version.  it works only with Internet Explorer

Rename = renames the file - good if you want to make a backup before uploading a new one.

Delete = deletes the item completely

Mail = you can mail that item to yourself or whoever you want to.

Lock = Locks the file so no one else can edit it while you're working on it

UnLock = Unlocks the file

Update = Takes you to the Upload Form

Checkout = Checks-out the file when using Version Control

CheckIn = Checks the file back in for Version Control

Un-Checkout = Ooops!
