I would like to host a handful of Java Web Start applications in my domain but this requires the presence of a MIME type that is not typically set up on most servers. According to the Java Web Start documentation, I need to: "Configure the Web server so that all files with the .jnlp file extension are set to the application/x-java-jnlp-file MIME type."
The documentation says it's easy to do this in Apache - just a single line to be added to the mime.types configuration file - but I have no idea if you are running Apache or whether I can access the necessary file even if you are running Apache.
Can someone tell me what I need to do to add this new MIME type? If the steps are not something I'm allowed to do, can I get one of the administrators to do it for me?
