Jungle Disk Plus Web Access Changes

We’ve made some changes to the web access feature for Jungle Disk Plus, in order to simplify things for new users. Previously you were required to register a custom domain (<myname>.myjungledisk.com) in order to use Web Access. Now that’s no longer needed – all Jungle Disk Plus users can access their data via https://www.myjungledisk.com. You will still need to register your Amazon Account keys in order to enable web access, if you haven’t done so already. If you’ve previously registered a custom domain it will continue to work and you can use it instead of www if you prefer.

For Workgroup Edition users there is no change – for web access, your users still need to use your registered myjungledisk.com domain name.

    Hi, any chance the Workgroup account manager section on your website will also be improved on (or even merged with the Web Access, so workgroup admins can access files and manage subusers/buckets all from the same place)?

    I also have two specific requests:

    1) In Workgroup account manager on your website, please let workgroup admins create and manage *Compatibility* buckets in addition to JD buckets. I mean, the JD Desktop client already has the ability to create Compatibility buckets…

    2) In Web Access, please let workgroup subusers have access to *Compatibility* buckets (according to permissions that the workgroup admin grants for each bucket).

    And as far as public file and folder sharing, do you plan to incorporate this functionality in Web Access for JD buckets, or should we continue to rely on Compatibility bucket ACLs (which is only for file sharing and not folder sharing)?

    Oh I just saw that you’ve also updated the account manager section on your website, nice. Looks like we can now manage multiple Amazon S3 accounts in one place?

    Also, does the JD Workgroup Edition client support multiple S3 accounts in one client instance (which I know isn’t supported by JD Desktop Edition)?

    @beq – The Desktop Edition has always supported multiple S3 accounts, but you needed one license for each account. The Workgroup Edition can now be used with multiple S3 accounts as well using the new Amazon Accounts management page, although we don’t expect many Workgroup users to need that functionality.
