The present invention relates to a method for uploading in an on-line storage system a file from a user client device through a gateway connected to the client device through a local area network and to the on-line storage system through a wide area network. The on-line storage system comprises a storage server coupled to a target storage device in which the file is to be stored. A gateway receives from the user client device an uploaded file. If the file is not present in the target storage device, the gateway uploads the file to the target storage device, and if the file is present in the target storage device, the gateway creates a link to the file stored in the target storage device. |
