Re: Apache as File Server

[fedora <fedora@xxxxxxxx>]

The files in these directories will be shown/executed by apache, as long 
as their types are in apache mime/types. These are mainly files of 
mime/type text/plain, etc.
Take these file types out of apache mime/types and they will be 
downloaded by apache.
