Hi Fabio,
Always in the quest for remote access ;-)

>like this service:
>http://www.box.net/home

As you already know http or ftp access (I suppose the access to the files in that WebDAV solution is done with these protocols) is not supported and viable (because of download delay), for scan proposes, by PDFE. Even so I think that can be a good idea to provide access to remote http or ftp or ... files, for consult proposes, and get another way to enter these remote files InfoFields information into PDFE database so we can use the current PDFE indirect scan modes. I'm sure I can get something from this basic idea.
