[mapguide-users] MapGuide Maestro 5.0 RC1 and 4.0.5 maintenance release available

[Andrew DeMerchant]

Yes, you can do that in a windows dialog - but the question is, can I 
use a url as a file path for a datasource (unmanaged) via Maestro? Also, 
can I map a server alias using a url (rather than a local drive letter)? 
I'm guessing the answer to that last one is a firm, no....though it 
might be handy.
