texte = >- When I try to download the file (name.sit.hqx) I seem to be getting the >alias (in the web delivery folder) instead of the file itself (in the >store room folder).This is what's supposed to happen. Your stockroom folder is not supposed to be in any place that URL can reach it, so that people can't steal your stuff. The alias leads to the true item, but since the alias is sitting in a URL-accessable area, it works properly. We use aliases to reduce disk space usage.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
