Use an InterMap link -- define a new InterMap reference
(in local/localmap.txt) for each folder you want to be able
to access. So, if the existing files are at http://somehost/download/,
you can set up an intermap link as:
MISServer http://somehost/download/
Then authors can refer to the files by writing "MISServer:file.ext"
and it'll automatically be translated to http://somehost/download/file.ext .
See http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/CustomInterMap for details.
Or, send us more details and we can help set it up. :-)
