Local directory in FIleManager?

Vote:
 

Hello EPi experts!
I have a client that wants to be enable for his employees (with no EPi skills) to upload content through ex ftp to a folder. This folder should be visible and also working in the filemanager in EPi edit mode. No versioning is require on the files.

Anyone have any good ideas?

Something like this?

 <add showInFileManager="true"
                    virtualName=Ftp Files"
                    virtualPath="~/FtpFiles/"
                    physicalPath="c:\FtpFiles"
                    name="FtpFiles"
                    type="EPiServer.Web.Hosting.VirtualPathNativeProvider,EPiServer"
/>

This works half way. No errors when running, and folder exists in filemanger, but the files thats in the folder on disk is not visible in the filemanager and when adding a new file in filemanager it does not uploads it to the local folder.

Whats wrong?
