# DocumentRoot: The directory out of which you will serve your

DocumentRoot /tmp/web/htdocs
# UserDir: The name of the directory which is appended onto a user's home

# AddLanguage allows you to specify the language of a document. You can

# AddType allows you to tweak mime.types without actually editing it, or to
# make certain files to be certain types.
# Format: AddType type/subtype ext1
# AddHandler allows you to map certain file extensions to "handlers",

# Action lets you define media types that will execute a script whenever

# MetaDir: specifies the name of the directory in which Apache can find

#ErrorDocument 404 /missing.html
# to redirect to local url /missing.html
#ErrorDocument 404 /cgi-bin/missing_handler.pl
# n.b. can redirect to a script or a document using server-side-includes.
