  2. Drive mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drive_mapping

    Mapping a drive can be complicated for a complex system. Network mapped drives (on LANs or WANs) are available only when the host computer (File Server) is also available (i.e. online): it is a requirement for use of drives on a host. All data on various mapped drives will have certain permissions set (most newer systems) and the user will need ...

  3. Directory structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directory_structure

    This folder serves as a buffer for users of a computer to share files. By default this folder is accessible to all users that can log on to the computer. Also, by default, this folder is shared over the network, although anonymous access (i.e. without a valid password-protected user account) to it is denied.

  4. Shared resource - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shared_resource

    A network share is typically made accessible to other users by marking any folder or file as shared, or by changing the file system permissions or access rights in the properties of the folder. For example, a file or folder may be accessible only to one user (the owner), to system administrators, to a certain group of users to public, i.e. to ...

  5. File URI scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_URI_scheme

    A valid file URI must therefore begin with either file:/path (no hostname), file:///path (empty hostname), or file://hostname/path. file://path (i.e. two slashes, without a hostname) is never correct, but is often used. Further slashes in path separate directory names in a hierarchical system of directories and subdirectories. In this usage ...

  6. File synchronization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_synchronization

    Shared file access is based on server-side pushing of folder information, and is normally used over an "always on" Internet socket. File synchronization allows the user to be offline from time to time and is normally based on an agent software that polls synchronized machines at reconnect, and sometimes repeatedly with a certain time interval ...

  7. Path (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_(computing)

    This path denotes a file called File.txt located in SubFolder directory which in turn is located in Folder directory which is located in the current directory of the current drive (since this example gives no drive-specification). File.txt This rather simple path points to a file named File.txt located in the current directory (since the path ...

  8. Drive letter assignment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drive_letter_assignment

    Assign the drive letter A: to the first floppy disk drive (drive 0), and B: to the second floppy disk drive (drive 1). If only one physical floppy is present, drive B: will be assigned to a phantom floppy drive mapped to the same physical drive and dynamically assigned to either A: or B: for easier floppy file operations.

  9. List of file systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_file_systems

    Shared-disk file systems (also called shared-storage file systems, SAN file system, Clustered file system or even cluster file systems) are primarily used in a storage area network where all nodes directly access the block storage where the file system is located. This makes it possible for nodes to fail without affecting access to the file ...
