Hey guys,

Maybe you guys can help me out with a little trouble I'm having.
I have a client who wants to stop apache from doing something it does by 
default.

If you have a file in htdocs called myfile.html

you can surf to that file like this:

http://www.me.com/myfile.html

but transparently you can also use:

http://www.me.com/myfile

and you get the same file.

My client wants to turn off this "feature" because it is "Ruining the 
web reports".

I've read:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/content-negotiation.html

and I thought that a -MultiViews in Options would do the trick but it 
didn't.

Any pointers or help would be greatly apprecaited.

david
