DropDat Client (Windows and Mac OS X only)
DropDat allows you to create "droplets" which upload to pre-determined ExpeDat servers when files are dropped on them. Droplets require no user interaction other than dragging files and folders onto them. They can be copied, downloaded, or emailed to end-users with no other installation.
It may still be necessary to open firewall ports on the workstations or networks of DropDat droplet users. See the Connectivity section for details.
There are two facets to interacting with DropDat: configuring droplets, and sending files.
|
| DropDat is the configuration master. Double click on it to create a new droplet, or drag a droplet onto it to change that droplet. You can also drag an MTPexpedat client onto DropDat to configure its settings. |
|
| Droplets are used to send files to an ExpeDat server. Drag files or folders onto a droplet to send them. To change the configuration of a droplet, drag it onto DropDat. |
Because DropDat is designed for minimal user interaction, it lacks many of the features provided by MTPexpedat and movedat. Use those clients for general purpose ExpeDat access.
