Abstract
The server device includes an index file generating unit, and a transferring unit. The index file generating unit generates an index file with respect to a prescribed directory in a hypertext format. The prescribed directory is a part of the hierarchy structure. The index file includes a list of identification information that identifies a file or a first subdirectory in the prescribed directory, and location information navigating to the file or the first subdirectory. The transferring unit transfers the index file to the client device in response to the command received at the receiving unit instructing to transfer the index file, whereas the transferring unit transfers the file stored in the storing unit in response to the command received at the receiving unit instructing to transfer the file other than the index file.
