    118118      If you install the CGI script as described above, any user will be allowed to view the complete print 
    119119      quota report, for all users, groups and printers. This is then a different behavior compared to when 
    120       a normal user wants a print quota report from the command line through <application>repykota</application>. 
    121       If you find this disturbing, then the best is to ask for user authentication whenever the <application>printquota.cgi</application> 
     120      a normal user wants a print quota report from the command line through <command>repykota</command>. 
     121      If you find this disturbing, then the best is to ask for user authentication whenever the <command>printquota.cgi</command> 
    122122      CGI script is accessed. This CGI script will then automatically behave as expected, showing in the print quota 
    123       report only what the authenticated user is allowed to see, just like when he launches <application>repykota</application> 
     123      report only what the authenticated user is allowed to see, just like when he launches <command>repykota</command> 
    124124      from the command line. As a special case, if the user authenticates using the <literal>root</literal> username, 
    125125      then there's no restriction on what may appear on the print quota report. 
     
    129129      To automatically ask for an authentication dialog whenever the CGI script is accessed, you have to configure 
    130130      your web server to do so. If your webserver is <ulink url="http://httpd.apache.org"><application>Apache</application></ulink>, then it's relatively easy. First you have to put  
    131       <application>printquota.cgi</application> in its own subdirectory below your web server's <filename>cgi-bin</filename> 
    132       directory, for example in <filename>cgi-bin/PyKota/</filename>. Then use the <application>htpasswd</application> 
     131      <command>printquota.cgi</command> in its own subdirectory below your web server's <filename>cgi-bin</filename> 
     132      directory, for example in <filename>cgi-bin/PyKota/</filename>. Then use the <command>htpasswd</command> 
    133133      command line tool to create a file which contains usernames and passwords for all your users allowed to see 
    134134      the print quota report from a web browser, and put this file outside of the directories served by <application>Apache</application>
