Sharepoint is cool! Sharepoint is a great solution for many companies who want to manage documents via a web interface. Imagine this, you have a company with 20 clients, 10 clients love sharepoint (the good ones), the other 10 hate the web interface (the "i'm not ready to change ones"). What would you do? Let's mix those! Whenever a user saves a document in a mapped drive it automatically appears in the companyweb! Everybody is happy then. The only drawback at the moment is that if an event occurs that a user deleted a document, you have to restore the whole sql database. I have my way for backing up and restoring files from Sharepoint server. You'll see that it's really easy! This is not really documented by Microsoft so bare me if you see a glitch. The trick to get the companywebsite and sub folders when you don't see it, is to open up the companywebsite browse a while, upload, download open documents. The computer will then 'know' what the companyweb is.
