make apache2 serve file as htmL? (kinda urgent)

[Matt Price]

Hi folks,

I just screwed up and wrote down the wrong url in my lecture:
http://www.derailleur.org/global
instead of 
http://www.derailleur.org/global.html

so I thought, no problem, I'll just copy the page over.  But as you can
see by clicking the above links, the first one is served up as text.  I
tried changing 
DefaultType text/plain
to 
DefaultType text/html

in 
/etc/apache2/apache2.conf, and also in  ROOT/.htaccess for this host, 

but neither had any effect.am I doing something wrong?  

All help much appreciated!  thanks,

Matt
