> other files in UPPER.CASE with .HTM extentions.
> Even with a symbolic link of 
> index.html -> INDEX.HTM

> are not access as HTML but as plain text (YUK!).
> I have read the entire MANUAL.PDF, and tried the
> DirectoryIndex bit (ie: index.html INDEX.HTM)
> which DOES work, but it is not reasonable to
> expect to append for EVERY file name....
> Am I just missing something?
> Has no-one ever come across this problem yet?
