I don't know what the "LocalFS portal" business is about. Maybe it's 
some derivative of LocalFS? My installation of LocalFS puts a "Local 
File System" product in the add list, and when I try to add one asks 
simply for name, title, and base path. Works exactly as expected.

I might, for instance, say

id: monkeybutter
title: The directory containing monkeys and butter. Fun!
base path: /tmp/foo

and magically I could retrieve the file '/tmp/foo/monkey' as 
'http://localhost:8080/monkeybutter/monkey'
