Long discussion and off topic for UBB but basically when adding valid data to the file it then acts as though it doesn't see or recognize the file.
file is 644, uploaded in ASCII, etc and works well if I only have:
Options All -Indexes
As soon as I start to add other stuff it goes dumb on itself. I recently was moved from a Linux RH Server to a Gentoo Server so I could have PHP 5 and MySQL 5. It worked fine on RH but on this setup with Gentoo and Apache 1.3 it keeps giving me fits.
Though on the other hand it is a brand new CPANEL which who knows maybe that is interferring with it.
I'll discuss on one of the Webmaster boards and see if anyone has any insight on it unless it rings a bell for anyone here.
Here is what I attempted to do but it then allows folder browsing instead of locking it down.
