I haven’t tested uploading files with non-ftp protocols, but it would be interesting to see if saving files using the smb or file protocols in the “Insert From URL” script step is possible – this would negate the need to mount the network folder within the server’s documents path. One of the biggest benefits in this setup is that you don’t have to connect any client to the network drive via any protocol. Then use a PSoS script to save the container files to the mounted folder. – Connect the server hosting FileMaker server to the shared file server through a remote network folder and mount that folder within the FileMaker documents path ( due to limitations of file path access on FileMaker Server).
