Hi,

I just realized I didn't answer.

We're running lighty.  The problem, however, was not with the web
server itself, but with an additional CGI script that we had installed
between the server and OTRS for authorization purposes.
(We're doing authentication based on X.509 certificates, and we wanted
some additional layer of authorization in front of OTRS.  So our
solution was to do some address rewriting and redirect all requests
through a simple script that did the authorization and forwarded all
authorized requests to OTRS.  It turns out that the script assumed
that arguments are passed only after the "?" in the URL, which is
clearly wrong.  We fixed that, and everything works fine now.)

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! :)

Cheers,
Toby.
