[opencms-dev] OpenCms 7.x: WebDAV - no overwriting of files possible - just for confirmation

[Christian Steinert]

The web folders in Windows are just shamefully bad and barely work at 
all, no matter against which server. With Vista it's even worse with 
Vista 64 even worse again. It's quite pathetic.

A rather good client that is commercial but inexpensive is webdrive 
http://webdrive.com/. Maybe others can also recommend an alternative.

Kind regards
Christian
