+<P>New with Apache 1.3.13 is a feature where if any configuration
+file is actually a directory, Apache will enter that directory
+and parse any files (and subdirectories) found there as configuration
+files. One possible use for this would be to add VirtualHosts
+by creating small configuration files for each host, and placing
+them in such a configuration directory. Thus, you can add or
+remove VirtualHosts without editing any files at all, simply
+adding or deleting them. This makes automating such processes
+much easier.

The server also reads a file containing mime document types; the
filename is set by the <A HREF="mod/mod_mime.html#typesconfig"
