OK so that must have been missing from the earlier beta versions. Good to know it's fixed now.

Yup, I downloaded again and now it worked right off the bat, you are right they implemented the proxy-ing now.

I haven't tried DropBox on inside the firewall yet, but I guess that would make sense.

Update: DropBox has a proxy preference, which I assume will work with firewalls/proxy servers.

I tried both FolderShare and DropBox and both could not work from within firewalls, Oracle blocks them as P2P services. That did not bother u?

No idea, drop me a note, and I can put you in touch with the Beehive product team. You can ask them directly.

Jake,

Any idea if Beehive (Oracle's next gen Collaboration Product) has anything similar?
