the applicable site configuration file (.sources.xml). This is done to prevent web access to all file
systems accessible to the host computer.

Response: the web server collects the newest JPG file on the
USR: drive of the host CR800
Note to retrieve any file, regardless of age, the url is
http://ip_address/drive/filename.ext. The name of the desired file is determined
using the
ListFiles command.

404 Not Found HTTP response code.
