hmm - the only problem that I could see (without more details) was that
you were running mms down in www, and getting into trouble with the
/prefix option.  Could you send me a copy of the headers (zip/uuencoded)?

A listing file (/listing /show=all) might be more helpful - though if we're
dropping an ifdef somewhere that may not show the problem.
