Locking a File on a WebDAV Server

Files can be locked on a WebDAV server. Locking files on a WebDAV server will prevent anyone that uses another connection to that WebDAV server from changing the files.

  1. In the Connection Navigator, right-click the file or folder you want to lock, then choose WebDAVthen choose Lock.

    OR

    In the Connection Navigator, select the file or folder you want to lock, then choose Filethen choose WebDAVthen choose Lock.

    A list of the files that you are about to lock is displayed in the Lock Files dialog. You can remove files from the list by highlighting them and clicking Remove. You can add them back by clicking Add.

  2. Click OK to lock the listed files.

    The file or folder is locked on the WebDAV server. The email address entered when the WebDAV connection was created is used to identify who locked the file.

    Files that are now locked are displayed with the locked locked icon in the navigator.
