LinuxQuestions.org - bash-python-apache question

Not sure if this is the right forum to ask this question, but have received some good responses in the past...hence posting. Please redirect if not the right forum.
I have a proxy config for my spacewalk apache config, which blocks any other site, extension to my site. I narrowed down the blocking config to following code

Code:

<LocationMatch "^/*">

    # this stanza contains all the handlers for RHN app code



    # added for oracle

    SetEnv NLS_LANG english.UTF8



    # mod_python

    <IfModule !mod_python.c>

    LoadModule python_module modules/mod_python.so

    AddModule mod_python.c

    </IfModule>



    PythonPath "sys.path+['/usr/share/rhn']"

    PythonDebug Off



    SetHandler python-program

    # all of these handlers are defined in apacheServer

    PythonHeaderParserHandler    proxy.apacheServer::HeaderParserHandler

    PythonHandler                proxy.apacheServer::Handler

    PythonCleanupHandler          proxy.apacheServer::CleanupHandler

    DefaultType text/xml



    DirectoryIndex _rhn_proxy/index.html index.html index.htm index.html.var index.shtml index.php index.php4 index.php3 index.phtml index.cgi



</LocationMatch>

Specifically, if I comment out "SetHandler python-program" my add-on config works fine. What does SetHandler python-program exactly do? I searched google and found that it is same as mod-python (maybe a higher version), but really could not find any description on what it does. Any experts who can give me some basics or appropriate links to review?

Thanks in advance
