To start application using default port use command line specified below:

$ mvn clean package
$ java -cp target/nerodesk.jar:target/deps/* com.nerodesk.Launch --port=8080

If you're on Windows:

java -cp target\nerodesk.jar;target\deps\* com.nerodesk.Launch --port=8080

File and Folder Visibility

By default, files and folders are private, i.e. visible only to the owner. However, file and folder visibility may be set to public by the owner. Shared folders will automatically cascade their visibility to any contained files and subfolders.

Limitations

File Size. Maximum size of the size a user can upload is 5Tb, because this is the maximum size of Amazon S3 object, see http://aws.amazon.com/s3/faqs/.

Graphic design

Resized nerodesk logo should be placed on top of all site pages (centered horizontally), just above site information and login/logout link.
