Oh, by the way. The day you published that I responded to it on this 
list the same day. Damn. Could have saved you a lot of time, but I
guess you missed it:

That is a lot of good info. 

A few changes though:

1)
DO NOT expect to see your Freesite today. You won't be able to see it until 
00:00 UTC. If it's currently 22:00 UTC, you'll see it in 2 hours. If it's 
currently 01:30 UTC, you get to wait 22.5 hours. DO NOT insert your site with 
-future 0 in an attempt to force the insert to happen "today". I tried it. It 
does not work. 
-
This used to work with PutFiles up till 0.3.8.1. You can do this in 0.3.9.1
with -update yes instead of -future 0
------------


2)
DO use index.html as your index page. This simple fact was not documented 
anywhere obvious; fortunately, I guessed correctly on this point the first 
time around. I don't know whether any other filenames may be used as index 
pages, since I didn't try any others.
-
You can use any file you want. If you don't specify one, PutFiles tries 
index.html.
Use -mskIndex whatever.html


3)

DO NOT insert your site with -fromDir SITE_NAME where SITE_NAME is the 
subdirectory containing your site. I tried it. If you do this, your site's 
URI will be freenet:MSK@SSK@PUBLIC/SITE_NAME//SITE_NAME/index.html which is 
probably not what you want. 
-
That should work, try adding this also:
-rootDir /home/rob/niftysite
