This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
When remote host is disconnected, files that are located on this host are read-only. That's correct. The issue is that user can sometimes not understand why are they read only. It would be fine if there was some hint when user tries to open/edit such file.
