Jeff,

Wow! Thanks for the quick response. To further things a bit, check my 
last message to the list.

Here's a paraphrased uname, if it helps:
Linux --- 2.0.36 #1 Mon Mar 15 14:23:33 CST 1999 i686 unknown

Running Zope 1.10.2, var is located at /tmp to get past nfs. Python 
version 1.5.1. Apache/1.2.6.

Anything else you need? I'm having really weird problems now. Look at my 
'span-is implication' message. I feel the EEXISTS is somehow tied in to 
the indentation thing. At least it is triggered by attempting to view the 
indented version of index_html.

Any thoughts?

Thanks again,

Chris
