 define handlers, set parameters  This file has two major functions.
   For the Apache web server, it defines a global
   access configuration which defines what server options (Indexes", "Includes",
   "FollowSymLinks", "ExecCGI", or "MultiViews") are associated
   with specific directories ("/", "/home/httpd/html", "/home/httpd/cgi-bin",
   and "/usr/doc").  For the LON-CAPA network server and perl module
   handlers, it defines machine specific settings (lonHostID, lonRole,
   lonAdmEMail, lonDefDomain, lonLoadLim, lonExpire, and lonReceipt)
   and internal machine settings for specific directories, socket ports,
   and browser detection logic.

 access to construction area  This module provides access to an educational resource construction area.
   This module is invoked by the URL-related pattern syntax
   <TT>LocationMatch "^/priv.*"</TT> or <TT>LocationMatch "^/\~.*"</TT>.
   Authentication of user identity
   is coordinated through cookies.  The abbreviation "cacc" corresponds
   to "construction-space access").  If the cookie handle is invalid, then
   this module returns a forbidden status and makes appropriate log entries.
   If the cookie handle is valid, status is determined to be okay (and,
   for the "priv"-type access, the resource is delivered by the
   <TT>lonconstruct</TT> module).
