-Currently, reconfiguration must be handled manually and involves an administrator
-altering configuration files present throughout the system.  For a list of these
-files and their descriptions, visit <A HREF="http://install.lon-capa.org/3.1/loncapafiles/loncapafiles.html">

-<H3>Future Reconfiguration Procedure (not yet implemented)</H3>
-<P>
-In the future, LON-CAPA Reconfiguration will be handled by a GUI tool (and text-based UI)
-developed as an offshoot from the RedHat anaconda python-Tk system.  This tool is
-already working in many respects, but awaits completion.

+<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:
+<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>
+</p>

+<h3>Configuration files and examples</h3>
+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.
+<ul>
+<li><a href='confexamples/krb.conf'>[EXAMPLE]</a> /etc/krb.conf</li>
+<li><a href='confexamples/access.conf'>[EXAMPLE]</a>
+/etc/httpd/conf/access.conf</li>
+<li><a href='confexamples/loncapa.conf'>[EXAMPLE]</a>
+/etc/httpd/conf/loncapa.conf</li>
+<li><a href='confexamples/hosts.tab'>[EXAMPLE]</a>
+/home/httpd/lonTabs/hosts.tab</li>
+<li><a href='confexamples/spare.tab'>[EXAMPLE]</a>
+/home/httpd/lonTabs/spare.tab</li>
+<li><a href='confexamples/htpasswd'>[EXAMPLE]</a>

+<li><a href='confexamples/smb.conf'>[EXAMPLE]</a> /etc/smb.conf</li>
+<li><a href='confexamples/ntp.conf'>[EXAMPLE]</a> /etc/ntp.conf</li>

+<h3>Current Reconfiguration Procedure</h3>
+<p>
+We recommend that you handle the reconfiguration manually.
+A knowledgeable system administrator should alter these configuration
+files.
