You just need to make these subtle changes:
        Directory: %/d/gen/website/gci/gen/
    Note the "/" before the "d/gen/website/gci/gen/". This indicates "the
root" of Rebol's file system. Also, it's best if your script was outside
that directory, otherwise it'll get sent to the site as well (along with
your password!).
    This needs to be done as well:
        write site/:file read Directory/:file
    Note the ":" before the second "file". That's a mistake on my part.

I hope that helps!
