Many servers, including NCSA, use an Access Control File (ACF) to configure basic authorization for access to all web documents in a directory.
The global ACF is named access.conf in the server's configuration directory.
Any directory in the server's document space can have a local ACF named .htaccess. Here is the format of an NCSA ACF:

Northeast Parallel Architectures Center, Syracuse University, npac@npac.syr.edu

If you have any comments about this server, send e-mail to webmaster@npac.syr.edu.
