Hi,

I dont think so.. I think the current default is fine, if you want to
write files to it, then you need to change things, best is to use
seperated directories. Note that you need to change things anyway because
the server listens on localhost by default. So, if you want things
differently; you have to customize it. Sounds like a fair deal to me ;)
(the defaults that is)
