How do I create a folder?
Please note that the terms 'folder' and 'virtual directory' really
mean the same thing.
From the main menu, use:
Manage tab
Setup folders tab
Name the folder (for example, pictures)
Select any file in the folder which is to become a virtual directory.
Or simply enter the complete path to the directory including the
trailing backslash character (e.g., c:\my documents\my pictures\).
Press the Add virtual directory button
The virtual directory should now appear under the Folders tab.
How do I create an uploads folder to let users upload files to me?

Or simply enter the complete path to the directory including the
trailing backslash character (e.g., c:\my documents\my pictures\).
Press the Add virtual directory button
Users should now be able to upload files to your PC by pressing
the Upload button from the Folders tab.
What is a virtual directory?
A virtual directory appears to be a folder when surfing
to a server but actually refers to a different area of the
hard disk or local network. For instance, BadBlue might be
installed to:
c:\program files\badblue\pe\
but there might
be a folder containing existing HTML at:
g:\documents\my pictures\
BadBlue allows you to create a
virtual directory with a specific name (say, pics) that
refers to the existing folder. A user can then surf to your
machine and reference the virtual directory through the name
you have assigned, e.g.,
http://1.2.3.4/pics/index.htm
