I would like to use Nginx as a webserver on my Ubuntu 12.04 server, but i would also like to use it for file transfers.

I have been able to set it up as a webserver (very simple), and I have been able to set it up for file transfers (using autoindex on line), but i have not been able to do them both at the same time.

Is it possible to have Nginx act as a webserver, and then when you click a link it shows your file directories instead?
