 ====Setting up the Web Hosting Directories and Files ====
 Create a top level directory to host your web files:
-% mkdir /eecs/dept/www/course/<course number>
+  % mkdir /eecs/dept/www/course/<course number> (chmod 755)
 Create a “labtest” directory inside your course web directory:
-% mkdir /eecs/dept/www/course/9999/labtest
+  % mkdir /eecs/dept/www/course/9999/labtest
+  % chgrp labtest /eecs/dept/www/course/9999/labtest
+  % chmod 700 /eecs/dept/www/course/9999/labtest
+Place the files you want the students to see in the labtest directory:
+  % index ,php,pdf,.htaccess etc
+If you need to setup initialization files on the users' desktop, Create a directory under labtest called "ltinit" and place the files there. You will also need to setup a labtest.sh script that will copy the files as requested. This directory should be 755 and group "labtest". All files inside should be group "labtest" \\
+\\
+In order for students to use a PPY account, you will have to place an .htaccess file under the labtest directory using the PYORK auth module. (AuthType PYork,PYorkAllowEveryone on)
+\\
+For ltinit directory, you will have to place another .htaccess file with the directive "Require all granted"
+\\
-Make it owned by “labtest” group:
-% chgrp labtest /eecs/dept/www/course/9999/labtest
-Makes sure that nobody but you can access your labtest directory while you are preparing it:
-  % chmod 700 /eecs/dept/www/course/9999/labtest
