In a previous message, Ed Kummel typed vigorously:

I'd like to point out that it's not "grumble-grumble Apple stuff", it's
"grumble-grumble Unix stuff" causing the problem. File and directory
names are case sensitive under Unix and homepage.apple.com happens to be
running a Netscape Enterprise server on BSD.

The url in the orginal message:

http://homepage.mac.com/va3uxb/Filesharing1.html

...is syntactically different than the url that works:

http://homepage.mac.com/va3uxb/FileSharing1.html

...note the uppercase "S" in "FileSharing.html".

The shorter url merely redirects to the correct longer one.
