Hello Mike, I think you can provide your own FileClientHelper by extending the current FileClientHelper class and override the "getTimeToLive" method. As your class is a connector, it will be automatically discovered by the Engine class (see the constructor of com.noelios.restlet.Engine class) and will handle all "file://" requests, assuming that the classpath of your application references your class before the current FileClientHelper class. (see http://www.restlet.org/documentation/1.0/connectors)
