Post installation

A noobs question!

Just installed filestore2 together fscache.
But can't find any upload link/button in drupal...

How does it work?

Is the command to reply to a post through e-mail nid=?&sid=? .. ?
If it is, where can I find the "nid" and "sid" values to reply to?

I have the necessity to link some files (filestore2) to various section of my portal. For example I have some .pdf to link to my section "section1" which I reach with URL taxonomy/view/or/15. How can I achieve that ? I mean, files doesn't have taxonomy associated with them so I have only a globa repository of files.

Can you indicate me a way to do that ?

I have been using Drupal (4.4.1) for a couple months at www.apathycore.com and really like how it works. I now have an opportunity to build a small corporate web site and would like to use Drupal for this as well. What the site must consist of is this:

1. Several (maybe 20) mostly static web pages everyone can access describing products, services, etc.

2. A demo download area only available to people who have registered with a valid e-mail address.

I've created a static page on my site that I'd like to have linked to in my navigation menu.

The problem is that whatever text string I enter into the "path" field gets appended to 'http://mysite.com/mybasedir/?q=' instead of being interpreted as a standalone url.

I use my home computer running SuSE 9.0 to experiment with the current Drupal CVS version under Apache2. Here is what I did to enable clean URLs:

NOTE: All paths given are only for SuSE 9.0.

The first problem was to get mod_rewrite running under Apache2:

I spent about 12 hours trying to enable mod_rewrite for apache2, without any luck. I searched the web, the Apache forum and Drupal's site and tried every trick I found -- nothing worked. Finally I remembered there was something in Yast (SuSE's control center, so to speak) about HTTP servers and went there. It had a listing for a mod_rewrite (under Yast > Network Services > HTTP Server) that was disabled, so I tried enabling it -- and finally mod_rewrite was shown as a running module in phpinfo()..... BTW it does no good to play with Drupal's Clean URL settings until you can see that mod_rewrite is enabled in phpinfo()

Next problem was to get all the Apache2 configuration files configured properly. Here are the changes I made to the config files:

Note: Be sure and change "/srv/www/htdocs/drupal-cvs/" to whatever the full path to your drupal directory is and "drupal-cvs" to the name of your drupal directory!

In -- /srv/www/htdocs/drupal-cvs/.htaccess

I changed  <IfModule mod_php4.c>

       to <IfModule sapi_apache2.c>
.

I also un-commented  # RewriteBase / 

and changed it to      RewriteBase /drupal-cvs
