# Publishing and Managing Files

This section tells how you can connect to a WebDAV publishing directory, publish documents by dragging them from their computers to the publishing directory, and manipulate files in the publishing directory.

This section includes:

- Publishing through Windows Whistler: Explains how to connect to a WebDAV server through the Web Folders feature in the Network Neighborhood.
- Publishing through Internet Explorer 5: Explains how to connect to a WebDAV server and manipulate files in Internet Explorer 5.
- Publishing through Office 2000: Explains how to manage files and edit them directly on a WebDAV virtual directory.

Note Even if users connect from behind a firewall, they can still publish on a WebDAV directory if they have the correct permissions and if the firewall is configured to allow publishing.
