oh yes.

I've thoroughly checked for asp in httpd.conf - I can't find it except in a couple of virtual sites I would expect to see it.

I do find it in srm.conf:

   319 # Chil!Soft ASP handlers
    320 AddHandler chiliasp .asp
    321 AddHandler chiliasp .asa


It's the same on this machine as it is on another that's not playing up...
