Managing iFolders
An iFolder
TM
is a local directory used to selectively share and synchronize files with user-specified
members. The iFolder files are accessible to all members via a host service, such as a Novell

7.1 Guidelines for the Location and Use of
iFolders
Generally, you can put iFolders anywhere on your local hard drive when you create an iFolder or set
up an iFolder that is shared with you. However, there are some practical and specific limitations.
Consider the following guidelines for placing and using iFolders on your computer:
An iFolder’s name must be a unique folder name in the directory where you put the iFolder.
An iFolder’s name cannot contain the following invalid characters:
\/:*?"<>|;
For other naming conventions, see
Section 7.3, “Naming Conventions for an iFolder and Its
Folders and Files,” on page 71
.
The iFolder must reside on a local hard drive; the location cannot be on a network drive or non-
physical drive.
