[Zope] HEAD Requests

Hi,

My Zope isn't accepting HEAD HTTP requests. I'm receiving 404 'Not
Found' errors. GET requests work as expected.

Is it usual or is a problem with my configuration? Is there any way to
fix it?

I'm using the source Zope 1.10.2 with Apache 1.3.3 in an AIX4.1 machine. 

This is very serious! Search engines robots usually first make a HEAD
request and, just if the file has changed, makes the GET. If HEADs
aren't working, my site won't appear in ANY search engine. 

regards,
