For example, if the path for a file is
server_root /Docs/marketing/
bizplans/planB.doc
, you could set up a mapping that prevents users from
seeing all but the last directory by defining a URL prefix of
plans
and mapping
it to
server_root /Docs/marketing/bizplans
. From then on, users
need only type
/plans/planB.doc
to locate the file. For more information,
see Chapter 13, “Managing Server Content.”
Note
By default, URLs that are redirected are always escaped. To prevent this, add
escape="no"
.
F
or example:
NameTrans fn="redirect" from="/foobar" url-prefix="index.html" escape="no"
The Enterprise server provides five default mappings:
•
/
—the primary document directory (sometimes called the document root ),
which initially maps to
server_root
/docs
•
/help
—the directory for most of the help files
•
/search-ui
—the directory for most of the search interface files
•
/webpub-ui
—the directory for most of the Web Publisher interface files
•
/publisher
—the directory for most of the Web Publisher files Enterprise

When you create a collection, you must specify which document directory to
index. You can only choose a directory that has a URL mapping or a
subdirectory within such a mapped directory. You can create your own
mappings to define specific directories. To do this, follow these steps:
1.
From the Enterprise Server, choose Content Management.
2.
Click the Additional Document Directories link.
The Additional Document Directories window appears.
3.
Type in a nickname that maps the URL to the additional document directory
you want to define.
For example, type in the word plans.
4.
Type the absolute physical path of the directory you want the URL mapping
to map to.
