The web service is configured to do virtual hosting, and two of the three virtual host names are associated with the list service. With the exception of wa, which is in the cgi-bin directory, all web files associated with the list service are in the htdocs/listserv directory hierarchy. That directory and its contents are owned by the listserv user. The rest of the web service directory hierarchy is owned by root. The web service is configured to use htdocs/listserv/archives as the document root for HTTP requests where the host name is either of the virtual host names associated with the list service, and htdocs as the document root for all other requests. -- Paul Russell Senior Systems Administrator University of Notre Dame
