1. Accessing Your Files

You can access all your files using Konqueror, a full featured file manager supporting access to files no matter where they are located: on your local disk, on FTP or Web servers, on SMB (Samba and Windows® shares) servers, on remote machines through SSH, and even on your NTFS partitions[1] with full read-write access (see Figure 2.1, “Accessing Windows Files With Konqueror”).

Accessing Windows Files With Konqueror

All file management operations are simple, you can use drag&drop to link to, copy or move files around or right click on files to pop up a menu with actions according to that file type. Type the full path, or URL, of the file or folder you want to access in the Location bar, or use the web browser-like buttons to navigate through your files.
