You can configure the filer to send the appropriate MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail
Extensions) Content-Type header in each response to a get request. The header
shows the MIME Content-Type value of the file, which tells the browser on the client
how to interpret the file.
For example, if the MIME Content-Type value shows that the file being transferred is
an image file and the client is configured properly, the browser can render the image
by using a graphics program.
The filer determines the MIME Content-Type value of a file by mapping the file name
suffix, or example,
.gif
,
.html
, or
.mpg
, according to information in the
/etc/
httpd.mimetypes
file.
NOTE: On a Windows 9x or Windows NT 4.0 client, the
/etc/httpd.mimetypes.sample
file name is not displayed in its entirety. By default, the Explorer displays the file name
as
/etc/httpd.mimetypes
. If you are using Windows, from the Explorer View menu,
select Options, then the View tab and, in the dialog box, make sure that there is no
check mark in the check box next to “Hide MS-DOS file extensions for file types that
are registered.”

To modify MIME Content-Type mappings or to add MIME Content-Types, edit the
entries in
/etc/httpd.mimetypes
. Entries are in the following format:
$QRSWLRQDOFRPPHQW
VXIIL[&RQWHQW7\SH
Lines preceded by the # sign are comments. The file name suffix is case-insensitive.
Following are sample entries:
0\FOLHQWV®EURZVHUVFDQQRZXVH
3,&7JUDSKLFVILOHV
SFWLPDJHSLFW
SLFWLPDJHSLFW
In the sample entries, files whose names ended with
.pact
or
.pact
are mapped to the
MIME Content-Type value of image/pict. The first field in the Content-Type value
describes the general type of data contained in the file; the second field is the data
subtype, which shows the specific format in which the data is stored. If the browser
