Comment: Add info about disabling web space

...

By default our web server will display whatever files and folders you place in your web directory. You will be able to browse your files using this automatic directory index. To change this behavior for a specific directory add an index.html, index.php, or index.cgi file to that directory. Directories with files like that in them will not generate automatic directory indexes. Instead they will display the content of your index file interpreted by php, cgi, or as html depending on the file extension used on your index file.

Disabling Your Student Web Space

After logging in to one of the linux.gl servers, run /afs/umbc.edu/common/bin/disable_student_web_space.sh. This will remove web access to your webspace. It will not remove any of your files.
