+<p>
+There are about a dozen files on the LON-CAPA server systems
+which customize how each system interacts with the rest of the
+LON-CAPA network.
+</p>
+<p>
+The two most important configuration files are:
+</p>
+<ul>
+<li><strong>loncapa.conf</strong> -
+typically located in the directory <tt>/etc/httpd/conf/</tt>
+<br /><i>contains variables and modifications necessary for
+the effective running of the Apache web server</i>
+<br />&nbsp;
+</li>
+<li><strong>hosts.tab</strong> -
+typically located in the directory <tt>/home/httpd/lonTabs/</tt>
+<br /><i>is a listing of all other internet machines that a server
+system considers to be valid server systems on the LON-CAPA
+network</i>
+<br />&nbsp;
+</li>
+</ul>

 <h3>Configuration files and examples</h3>
+<p>
 LON-CAPA currently depends on the following list of configuration
 files.  Locations of these files are by default.  Depending on your
 Linux distribution (RedHat, Mandrake, Debian, etc.), the file paths
 may be elsewhere.

 <h3>Current Reconfiguration Procedure</h3>
 <p>
-Currently, we recommend you handle reconfiguration manually.  
-An administrator should alter configuration files present throughout the
-system.
-</p>
-<h3>Alternative Reconfiguration Procedure (alpha software)</h3>
-<p>
-LON-CAPA Reconfiguration can also be handled by a GUI tool (and text-based UI)
-developed as an offshoot from the RedHat anaconda python-Tk system.  This tool
-should be present on your LON-CAPA system at
-/usr/sbin/loncapaconfig.
+We recommend that you handle the reconfiguration manually.
+A knowledgeable system administrator should alter these configuration
+files.
