I've got a problem with the Desktop File Access. I cannot use it like in the flash demo. I run Alfresco on localhost, because I have to make a university presentation about alfresco and I do not have a server.
Does the problem come from the fact that I use Alfresco in localhost ?
Thanks a lot for helping me
fred.

This could be caused by a couple of things.
First, you need to use the machine's name, rather than localhost, to access the desktop file access.
Also, the machine needs to have networking running. If the machine is stand alone you can set up a loopback adapter to create a virtual network. See this link for information on how to set this up:

How can I reach the Alfresco's directory … ? From where ? wich with address ? Do you think that the problem comes from the localhost connection ?
This is my wireless local network :
HOST 1 : server Alfresco, I can reach Alfresco like this : http://localhost:8080/alfresco
HOST 2 : http://what.to.reach/alfresco ???
or
\\HOST1\what_to_reach_alfresco ????
Thanks a lot for your answer.

We have two methods you could use to get desktop file access:
WebDAV and CIFS.
If you are using WinXP, you can create mappings to these in the following ways:
WebDAV - Open up 'My Network Places'. In the 'Network Tasks' list select 'Add a network place'. (If you use folder view you will have to click on the 'Folders' icon in the toolbar to display the available tasks).
You should be presented with the 'Add Network Place Wizard', in there add the following to the 'Internet of network address' field: http://machinename/alfresco/webdav
If you do this correctly you should be prompted to log in. When you finish the wizard you should have a link in 'My Network Places' to your Alfresco WebDAV store.
For CIFS, use 'Map Network Drive' in the tools menu of 'My Network Places'.
Use the following in the 'Folder' field: \\machinename_a\alfresco
If you do this correctly you should be prompted to log in. When you finish the wizard you should have a link in 'My Network Places' to your Alfresco CIFS connection.

You can make Explorer access WebDAV by opening My Network Places and using "Add a network place".
If you are running CIFS on a localhost, and the machine name is AAA, then you can access CIFS by going START->RUN and typing \\AAA_a and ENTER. That should bring up a login dialog to the machine. You can map a network drive to this as well.

- File | Open
Enter the URL as http://localhost:8080/alfresco/webdav
Tick the box "Open as Web Folder"
Click OK
Logon at the 'Connect to localhost' (Alfresco DAV server) dialog
In Explorer it should now show up under 'My Network Places'…
