Re: The use of Alias directive command

[Tianyin Xu <tixu@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think XMLRPC is nothing special only a part of the path.

What the Alias directive do is map "/test" to "/var/www/html/python/XMLRPC". For example, the request for http://yourserver/test/foo.gif would cause
    the server to return the file /var/www/html/python/XMLRPC/foo.gif

Hi all,

I have seen in some config files of httpd, the  use of the Alias directive is intresting, as follows:

Alias /test   "/var/www/html/python/XMLRPC"

The XMLRPC is not a directory, but the httpd server will define the "/test" is the XMLRPC server.

What is the means of "XMLRPC"  in the "/var/www/html/python/XMLRPC"?

Thanks.
