Apache 1.3b2 for Windows 95/NT won't serve default index file? (fwd)

I know this is a known issue, but just more confirmation...

I'm seeing the same thing on my WIndows 95 machine; using essentially the same 
config files on my NT 4.0 machine, all is working well. 

Are you using 95 or NT?

It's next on my list (I fix CGI on 95 last night - can't commit, coz

Cheers,

Ben.
