Fwd: Using FrameMaker files on server

[Art Campbell]

I'm posting for David, who can't get the server to accept emails.
Please respond to him, not me, if you have thoughts on this issue.

Cheers,
Art

  Using FrameMaker files on server

FrameMaker gurus -

Windows XP Professional SP2
CPU: 2.4 GHz
RAM: 2.0 GB
FrameMaker 7.1p116
WebWorks Publisher Professional for FrameMaker 2003 8.0.82296
GigaBit set at 1000

I've seen some strange behaviors by both FrameMaker and WWP Pro.

I have heard it said or have seen it written to the effect that
FrameMaker has problems working with files on a server.

Given the setup:
  1. FrameMaker and WWP Pro programs (individual licenses) installed
on workstation on LAN
  2. FrameMaker (.book and constituents) and WWP Pro production files
on server on LAN
  3. corporate standard setup — rather than having files on
workstation under, say, "My Documents" folder

¿What are the considerations, potential glitches, and gotchas? ¿Things
such as incompatibility between speed of FrameMaker and WWP Pro
programs on workstation getting info to and from files on server?

Advise, please.

Thanks!
