I have a webserver running on my linux box. I have a text file in the / directory of the server called readme.txt. I want it setup so that no matter what directory the user is in, if they reques the file readme.txt it will send the readme.txt from the server root.
So say they request mywebsite.com/somefolder/anotherfolder/readme.txt it will send the file mywebsite.com/readme.txt
