This page allows you to create a new configuration template. After you have chosen the template, you will use the other administrative forms to configure the template. Then, you can apply the template to certain directories on the server. A configuration template is a fast and easy way to apply one configuration to a number of directories without having to reenter all the configuration information again. In essence, templates are named objects; that is, you create an object, configure it, then tell the server to use that configuration when accessing the directories you choose. Some example uses for resource templates are cgi-bin directories, public html directories, or perhaps a subscription directory scheme.
