Next room from here is an i386 machine running FreeBSD 2.0.5-RELEASE
and used as www server with CERNs httpd. Everything was fine until,
while playing with Netscape , I wanted to  POST and received the
message:

Error 500
This server is not configured to handle POST 

Running 'http -v' gives me the following output:
This is CERN-HTTPD, version 3.0, using libwww version 2.17 

Could anybody give me a shortcut to configure it for my needs ? I'd
appreciate very much if I could avoid going through the whole
documentation right now ...

Thanks a lot.
