Point find-links at either a folder on disk, or that sample folder 
served over http by Apache's normal folder serving (ie: index listings on).

Just stick any type of dist into that folder.

The rest "just works".

If it doesn't, explain what you did and we'll see if we can spot what 
went wrong...
