You can configure MIME types on your Linux hosting account using a .htaccess
file. When you configure MIME types in your .htaccess
file, you associate file types with a specific application or action.

to specify you are adding a new mime type (file type). - Replace
application/x-shockwave-flash
with the actual mime parameter specs. - Replace
swf
with the extension of the file type.
