Can a Path Element be a file name?

Migrateduser

According to the OD Admin Guide the <path> element is always a directory. Could it be a file? Such as:

<source>
<sourceFilesystem area = "/iwmnt/default/main/www/STAGING" >
<pathSpecification>
<path name = "index.htm" />
</pathSpecification>
</sourceFilesystem>
</source>

What if I want to deploy only one file from the root of the doc tree such as the site home page?

Thanks.
