    Hi All,

    I've installed WSSE last week, just to see what features it has,
    one of the features is accessing my files by using a web interface.

    I would like to have a similar web interface on my Win 2k8 R2 server, but I cannot find it.

    Is there someone who knows a package for this ?

    Probably i would guess its a dlna server and thats why you can do that. just install a dlna server software in r2 and you can do that too.(upnp =dlna server)

    Try to activated WebDAV in the Internet Information Server.

    If activated and configured correctly you can access youre files all over the world true a browser.

    Use a SSL connection to make it more secure (you need to open your ssl port 443 in the firewall).

    Google yourself for instructions (webdav windows server 2008 r2 configure)
