OK, I see what's happening: [gregames@daedalus apache]$ ls /www/httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/core* /www/httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/core.html.en /www/httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/core.html.fr /www/httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/core.html.html mod_negotiation is turning off caching because there are multiple versions of that document.
