To shorten the default File Manager URL of:

1

http://yoursite.com/cgi-bin/FileManager/Manager.pl

To a shorter custom URL, e.g:

1

http://www.yoursite.com/FileManager

you need to access your server using your FTP Client and navigate into the servers public root folder.

Create a folder in your public_html folder (or similar), with the name you would like setup as the redirect, in this case its "FileManager".

Then create a file called index.php and insert the following code:

1

<?php Header ("Location: http://yoursite.com/cgi-bin/FileManager/Manager.pl");?>

When this is complete, upload the index.php into the newly created "FileManager" folder.

Now when your users enter: www.yoursite.com/FileManager they will be instantly forwarded to: http://www.yoursite.com/cgi-bin/FileManager/Manager.pl
