Classic webservers are used for publishing one or more websites. They work in a simple way: you just indicate which folder contains files to be published, and it is done.

However, this is also possible with HFS. Just follow these steps:

  1. In the virtual file system, right-click on root(home) and click bind root to real-folder.
  2. Select the folder that contains the website files.
  3. Right-click root again, and click default file mask.
  4. Type index.htm*.

The name index.htm* is normally ok, but your particular main page file may have a different name, such as default.html; check it out.

No server-side scripting is currently supported.
