    184184Note that in Apache 2.2, `AuthDigestFile` should be changed to `AuthUserFile`.  You can use `AuthType Basic` instead, but then the passwords are sent in the clear, and you'll have to [http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/howto/auth.html change some of the lines].

     186Also note that having username and passwords at NASA means your system falls under the 'Web Application' designation, and requires additional approvals through STRAW.  If you're setting up a webserver at NASA, and you don't know what STRAW is, stop immediately, and talk to your local syadmins.
