What is an Inbound Server? I(2) Drive Inbound Servers
an
integrated
service
as

of

When you create a server, a web-based form with file input field(s)
and

What is the difference between an ftp server and I(2) Drive Inbound
Server? Setting up an ftp server can be difficult for your clients
to use. It requires them to download an ftp client. You have to provide
them with access
information
and instructions such as username, password, what port number to use and
what software to use etc. In many cases where the client is behind
firewall they simply can not connect to your server. Also you have to setup
permission
on the server in such a way that would allow them to upload their files
without allowing them to view or download other files that have been uploaded.
Anther problem is that after the files have been received you need to sort
out what file belongs to which client. Unless you create a different username
for each client you wont know who has send you files.
I(2) Drive inbound
server takes care of many of these issues. There is no need for client software
to download as it
is a
web-based
form for
your
users. Also the user can enter his/her information, message and description
about the files. You client will not see other files that have been send
you. On the management side files are grouped by the sender along with
their information. You have the option of accepting or rejecting one or
more files
and bringing them into any folder on your I(2) Drive account. Also since
you have  WebDAV access
to your I(2) Drive account, and can map to it from your computer, and there
is no need to download the files right away. You can open each file on your
computer when you need to. You can even edit files right on the server.
