Now that is why I came to the list :-) I have no .htaccess file in the directory /var/www which is the root doc directory for the server. I've read nothing about one for that directory. I'm aware of what they are for but the debian installer for lighttpd did not provide one. Should I put one in place? Please site an example. Also what about those double slashes that end up in the url? Any notions on that. Thanks John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
