no apache HEADER?



i can get apache (1.3.9) to autoindex a directory, but *NOT*
with an included HEADER or README file--

from httpd.conf:
	Options +Indexes
	IndexOptions +FancyIndexing
	ReadmeName README
	HeaderName HEADER
	IndexIgnore HEADER* README* .htaccess *# *~

when i browse to that listing via http, i do get the directory
listing (which properly hides HEADER and README) but there's
no text included above or below the directory: as if HEADER
and README were both empty (which they aren't).

% ls -lFa
drwsr-sr-x    2 will     staff     1024 May  9 01:12 ./
drwsrwsr-x    8 will     staff     1024 May  4 23:24 ../
-rw-r--r--    1 will     staff      310 May 10 10:19 .htaccess
-rw-r--r--    1 will     staff      189 May  2 03:01 HEADER
-rw-r--r--    1 will     staff      271 May  4 17:47 README
-rwxr-xr-x    1 will     staff      790 Apr 25 02:18 file1.pl*
-rw-r--r--    1 will     staff      894 Apr 17 04:46 file2.html
lrwxrwxrwx    1 will     staff       10 Apr 15 22:18 file3.txt -> file1.pl

all that HEADER and README contain is a generic welcome
message and a trailing info paragraph... text-only.

when i browse to ".../dir/HEADER" apache shows me the file
(asme for README) so the permissions are okay.

what other options might interfere with this? anybody know?
