Telsa,
Thanks for your note! I hadn't thought to look at the source rpms. I'm
about to go out of town for a week and will give a go at unpacking the
source rpms on my return. I may, in fact, take you up on your kind offer
to assist :)
As to why the sample mime.types is not in usr/doc with the the other sample
configuration values.....good question. I can not think of why they
shouldn't be there.
