I don't quite understand "install netserver". There's nothing to "install" unless you mean any necessary host-server options of OS/400 or the networking service on the PC. Of course, if you have never installed the host side of things nor PC networking, you ain't gonna be pulling anything down to PCs anyway. As for opening through OpsNav directly... I can edit it now (using OpsNav 5.1 at least) by selecting RMB-<Edit>. However, I'm not sure that should be allowed. My personal feeling is that it should _only_ be allowed through a defined share (mapped drive). I'd rather have OpsNav have as small a footprint as possible; and since I can map a drive through OpsNav and since I can do anything else needed through the mapped drive without executing OpsNav in the future, I'd prefer not having OpsNav include the support that my Windows desktop already has. Further, I might have a more centralized control of authorities if I can rely more on share permissions. And if I haven't created a share, it's a public way to demonstrate that objects in that directory shouldn't be accessed directly from a client.
