Update of /cvsroot/mhonarc/mharc/etc
In directory subversions:/tmp/cvs-serv6214/etc

Modified Files:
        apache.conf.in.dist 
Log Message:
* cgi-bin/extract-mesg.cgi.in.dist:
  . Changed returned media-type from message/rfc822 to text/plain.
    message/rfc822 is nice since some browsers can render it directly,
    but it does open potential XSS HTML email attacks.

    IMPORTANT NOTE: User upgrading are encouraged to delete
                    "cgi-bin/extract-mesg.cgi.in" and run 'make
                    configure' after extracting this release.  If you
                    really want the message/rfc822 behavior, you can
                    edit "cgi-bin/extract-mesg.cgi.in" and redefine
                    the $message_media_type variable.

* etc/apache.conf.in.dist:
  . Security related comments added.  Users are encourage to read
    if using etc/apache.conf.
