Setting up a half-life fast download with IIS6.0

Recommended Posts

So, I've set up IIS6.0 following a tutorial. I made my "WEB_ROOT" file, according to this tutorial. Now, I've never set up a web server before.

 

I am doing this for a friend, because I have experience with SQL, php, html and the like. Unfortunately, this does not help much.

 

What I am trying to do is set up a directory for files such as maps, models, and the like so that I may set a server to download it from the website.

 

So, I've set this up um...fairly well, I suppose. The problem is, I believe, that if you go to the site (by IP, naturally. Domain names are for losers ) you see this directory. This is a good thing, unfortunately, when you select a file, it should attempt to send you that file.

 

It doesn't do this, it says it is not found. This isn't because the folders aren't there.  I just must be unaware of what to do.

 

If anyone could help, that would be appreciated. I've no idea how to set this up.
