Re: [BUG]: "waiting 4 proxy auto configuration file" on SunOS 4.x (fwd)

OK, then I will relay this to the other Apache developers. We're using .pac
files here with 3.01 Netscape and Apache without a problem (except for NNTP).

If you make the MIME type in the Apache mime.types

application/x-ns-proxy-autoconfig	pac

does this help for Netscape 2.x?
