For example, you will need to know the IP Address or URL of the server, and may need to know what kind of server it is (e.g., HTTP, FTP, etc.).</p> <p>Also, some types of servers impose restrictions on what you can do with files stored on the server. For example, you may be able to open a file from a server, but may need to save any changes to the file locally, on your own computer.</p> <p>With these caveats in mind, perform the following steps to open a file from a server using <app>gedit</app>:</p> <steps> <item><p>In the title bar, click on <gui>Open</gui>.</p></item> <item><p>Click <gui>Other Documents…</gui>.</p></item> <item><p>Press <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>L</key></keyseq> in the <gui>Open</gui> dialog.</p></item> <item><p>Enter the IP Address or URL of the appropriate server.</p></item> <item><p>Find and select the file that you wish to open.</p></item> <item><p>Use the Character Encoding drop-down list to select the appropriate character coding.</p></item> <item><p>Click <gui>Open</gui>.</p></item> </steps> <p>Valid types of URI include http:, ftp:, file:, and all of the methods supported by <app>gvfs</app>.</p> <note> <p>Files from some types of URI are opened as read-only, and any changes you make must be saved to a different location. For example, HTTP only allows files to be read. Files opened from FTP are read-only because not all FTP servers may correctly work with saving remote files.</p> </note> </page> Save
