Hi,

I'm trying to get manila to host my pictures and gems now as we no longer have an apache server available to host these static files.

So all pictures that used to hosted by
apache.server.com/frontier_files/ now need to be hosted by
frontier.server.com/frontier_files/

The question is the correct way to go about this. This is what I'm thinking:
1. Create a new path /frontier_files/ within the domain pointing to the object folder Frontier:Guest Databases/www/fontier_files
2. Move the frontier files to the object folder
3. Change the folder path and url for uploaded static pitures and file uploads from Frontier Admin
3. Go through the manilawebsites.root and change all references from apache.server.com/frontier_files/ to frontier.server.com/frontier_files/

I'd be happy if someone could comment on my suggestion and let me know if I have missed anything.

Thanks,

Darren
