Does it have to be the [[File: ... ]] syntax? If not, you could link externally (cf. http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgAllowExternalImages) and write a template that expands your "xxxx" to the full path.

I would still recommend the same approach as I did previously. Otherwise you are going to have serious database problems. If you can get them all available on the webserver file system use importImages.php from /maintenance for mass uploading

John,
Thank you for the response. But I have scores of files to maintain through synchronizing scripts. I cannot manage them through uploads. Moreover that some are on the same computer at another place. I suppose I have to go through the nightmare you announce ... Where the solution could be detailed ?
Let me phrase it in the most simple way.
- I have a file under /jefsey/graphs/xxxx.jpg.
- I have a wiki under /home/name/www with its /home/name/www/images
directory.
How can I make [[File:xxxx.jpg]] display the file? Or another command do it?
Or may be is there a list more appropriate to ask for such a solution?
Deep thanks. jfc
You are asking for a headache, My suggestion is to enable file uploads but
restrict it to a special user group and have yourself as they only member
