Working on files that are on my server via eclipse?
I remember I could remotely open files that are on my server via notepad ++, but I want to know how / if I can do it using eclipse so I can edit the files on my computer and when I save it , it saves this file directly to the server.
I am using Windows 7 and my server is CentOS (I think).
Hmm? :)

Remote System Explorer allows you to do this. Go to "Help"> "Install New Software ...", select "Galileo Update Site", find "Remote System Explorer" and install it.
Once you've installed it, open the Remote Systems view and add a connection to your favorite server. I use it all the time; works like a charm.

Eclipse usually needs files to be in the project, but if you can map a network drive, you can add the remote folder to the project as a linked resource, then it can be changed as if it were on the local (except for the additional delay ).
To maintain portability, you can specify a path variable for the remote filesystem and define a relative path from that variable. See this answer for details on setting up linked resources .
If drive mapping is not an option, there is a remote system explorer architecture . I haven't used it myself, so I can't tell you how well it works, but this blog post describes how to use RSE to view deleted files .
