Welcome

iFolder is a simple and secure storage solution that can increase your productivity by enabling you to back up, access and manage your personal files-from anywhere, at any time. Once you have installed iFolder, you simply save your files locally-as you have always done-and iFolder automatically updates the files on a network server and delivers them to the other machines you use. Not only that, but using iFolder, you can also invite other iFolder users to share your files in the same safe and secure way so that your teams always have the most relevant copy of a document.

How about:

(1) Ability to store files on EXTERNAL devices like network share

(2) PEER-PEER SYNC - Ability to detect a LAN environment and sync locally to other PC on the lan

 

 

iFolder now is available as an appliance.  Stephen Shaw has graciously put lots of effort into making iFolder easy to get started with.   Check out his appliances page at http://www.decriptor.com/2009/07/21/ifolder-appliance-0-0-9/

Hi,

 

As discussed on the IRC, We have successfully migrated simias and ifolder projects to http://sourceforge.net .

This is the follow up mail on the details of the movement and mailing lists.

Henceforth, ifolder-dev@forge.novell.com mailing list will be shut down.

 

* We have 2 projects on SF.net - simias and ifolder.

- https://sourceforge.net/projects/ifolder/

-https://sourceforge.net/projects/simias


* Project ifolder3 was renamed to ifolder

 

* Code with all history and branches have been migrated to

- http://simias.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/

-http://ifolder.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/

 

Command to switch  svn sw --relocate <src_svn_root_URL> <dest_svn_root_URL>

- Ex : svn switch --relocate https://forgesvn1.novell.com/svn/ifolder http://ifolder.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/ifolder

 

* We currently have 5 mailing list. If you had subscribed previously on forge.novell.com,

then your subscription is carried over for the corresponding mailing list.

Rest need to re subscribed . Earlier all of us used to communicate only on ifolder-dev.

iFolder Team.

As you all are aware, we are in the process of migrating iFolder source repositories  to a new server. Because of this, the current iFolder svn repository hosted on forgesvn1.novell.com is down.

Expected turn around time is 24 hours. Please refrain from accessing the server. We will update you all on the progress.

 

 

Sorry for the inconvenience.

 

iFolder Team.
