What does this robots.txt text mean?

I have this in robots.txt:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /dw/

Code (markup):

What does that actually mean? What will it do?

Thanks,

Jon

 

That means that search engines must not get into your dw directory for indexing purposes.

That's very odd...I don't have a dw directory. If I wanted to disallow 2 directories ("images" and "surveys"), how would the robots.txt file look?

 

To disallow the 2 directories ("images" and "surveys"), put each directory on a separate Disallow line

User-agent: *
Disallow: /images/
Disallow: /surveys/

 

Thank you.
