  • Introduction
    To make files available via a Challenger server there are a few different types of modules who more or less cooperate.

    Location modules are those file system modules that are used to make a directory available on the web. A file system module must be present for a Directory module to be able to produce directory listings.. File Extension modules decide which module should handle files with a certain extension.

    Index files, index.html and the like, are handled by a Directory module.
