virtual path
<networking> The location of a file or directory on a particular server,
as seen by a remote client accessing it via World-Wide Web (or similar
distributed document service).
A virtual path provides access to files outside the default directory and
subdirectories. It appears in the form ".../~name/..." where "~name" is replaced
with actual path configured by the administrator. An access control list can be
associated with a virtual path.
