# salt.fileserver.roots

The default file server backend

This fileserver backend serves files from the Master's local filesystem. If `fileserver_backend` is not defined in the Master config file, then this backend is enabled by default. If it is defined then `roots` must be in the `fileserver_backend` list to enable this backend.

    fileserver_backend:
      - roots

Fileserver environments are defined using the `file_roots` configuration option.
