Adding PuTTY and Firefox Plugins to BartPE

Adding a MIME Type for Cab Files to Apache

I placed a .cab file on the website for downloading, but I found that, when I clicked on it, I got a screen full of garbled text, rather than being presented with the option to download it. I fixed the problem by adding another MIME type to the Apache webserver configuration file, httpd.conf file. I edited /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and added an AddType line for the .acs file extension.
#
# AddType allows you to add to or override the MIME configuration
# file mime.types for specific file types.
#
#AddType application/x-tar .tgz
AddType application/octet-stream .cab

I then restarted the Apache webserver with apachectl restart. When I visited the URL again, I was prompted as to whether I wanted to download the file.
