It should have worked...

All you should have had to do was change that line and then
/etc/rc.d/initd/httpd restart
to restart the web server.

Can you post the part of the config file that you listed?

Additionally, there is a 'priority' on the first index, over the second.

ie.e
if you've got it set up like this:
index.php3 index.html index.pl default.htm default.html
it'll look for index.php3 first, then index.html, etc.
SO if you want index.mv to 'override' index.html, you'll have to put it
first.

After that, we should look at the error log and see if it sheds some light
on the subject.
