I seem to remember having a similar problem with Apache::ASP and index.html
(i.e. the default page) when I accessed the site as http://xyz.com/ until I
replaced <Directory...> with <Files ...> to specify pages to be processed by
the handler. Do other pages get processed correctly ? At the time this
seemed to me to be a bug in Apache...
regards
Rod
