I looked at Beeweeb for a project requiring internet based file sharing, but it has a basic problem. It is not real time, so the files cannot be worked on simultaneously. The files are cached. They sent me a beta that gets around this, though. The idea of a single port tcp based network file system is very interesting to me.

We suffer the same bugs and regressions that all projects face, and it is only with good feedback that we can hope to find them all. > I consider to change to Beeweb although it > cost money. Beeweb is a very different product. It appears that they have created a windows client-side VFS redirector, and have implemented a file-sharing protocol on top of that. Indeed, where they target an internet environment, Samba does not - SMB/CIFS is completely unsuited to that task. It will be interesting to see where Beeweb fits in around WebDAV and standard HTTP - but they do seem to have an interesting market. It's also important to note that they must solve many of the same problems that Samba does - they just plug in at a different layer. > BTW how do u uninstall the dirt?? using ./uninstall ??? As Joel mentioned, it very much depends on the installation method.
