Currently, I can add a file which can be served up from zope, but it becomes a static object after it is uploaded, and so it is not the copy which updates every five minutes. I can do this simply in apache by putting the file in the htdocs file and creating a simple link to it. How is this possible in Zope?

I think ExternalFile is for you:

One might also point a LocalFS instance at it's directory, perhaps?
