Patent Images
1. A method of sharing and synchronizing an electronically stored file between a cloud file system and a client file system comprising the computer implemented steps of:
- determining that the electronically stored file is associated with a plurality of directories in the cloud file system; and
generating, from the electronically stored file, in the client file system a plurality of replicates of the electronically stored file, a number of replicates in the plurality of replicates equal to a number of directories in the plurality of directories in the cloud file system.

8. A method of sharing and synchronizing an electronically stored file between a cloud file system and a client file system comprising the computer implemented steps of:
-
determining that the cloud file system has multiple, electronically stored files in a common folder wherein the multiple files have identical names; generating in the client file system replicates of the electronically stored filed; and naming the replicates with an incremental counter indicative of the particular replicate. - View Dependent Claims (9)
