Question How to change File Description

When I am browsing the web and I end up in a directory with no HTML index file (ie index.html), I see something like this:

Code:
Index of /k

 Name               Last modified       Size   Description
--------------------------------------------------------------------
 115-1564_CRW.jpg   16-Feb-2001 12:01   58k

And sometimes there is something to the right of the file (ie, its description) under the "Description" column and sometimes there isn't.

I also see the description column in my ftp software.

I would like to know how to add or alter that description (I have files people download from a directory on my website, and the description would be helpful to them). I use CuteFTP as my FTP client. I am comfortable with telnet as well.

I can't find any documentation anywhere that says how to do this.

Please help me!

Thanks,
Zachariah

webserver - hints for web server configuration SYNOPSIS
If you want people to actually see the results of your network monitoring efforts you will need a webserver. This document lists some configuration hints for webservers. Contributions welcome. APACHE
Configuring mod_expire A big issue with mrtg monitoring data is the expiery time. All these nice graphs you can create are only valid for a short time. If you do not take special action some webbrowsers will not notice this and you may end up with people seeing old data because of caching issues. The apache module mod_expire allows you to setup special expiery properties for individual file. Here is an example for how this may look for an mrtg web directory. The configuration directives can be stored into a .htaccess file. ############################################################ # Example .htaccess for use with apache-1.2 and mod_expire. # (mod_expire come with apache-1.2 but you have to explicitly # activate it when compiling the httpd ...) ############################################################# # <Files "*-day.png"> ExpiresActive On # enable expirations # five minutes ExpiresDefault M300 </Files> <Files "*-week.png"> ExpiresActive On ExpiresDefault M1800 </Files> <Files "*-month.png"> ExpiresActive On ExpiresDefault M7200 </Files> <Files "*-year.png"> ExpiresActive On ExpiresDefault M86400 </Files> <Files "*.html"> ExpiresActive On ExpiresDefault M300 </Files> # index.html is not automatically generated <Files "index.html"> ExpiresActive Off </Files> AUTHOR
