Ok, by default cern-httpd looks for Welcome.html, welcome.html, and index.html, in that order. If any of those is installed, I'll not install Welcome.html. If an admin has changed the default to something else, then they can change the order as well, so I'm not going to worry about that case, OK? (In other words, if you have the entry Welcome {Welcome.html, hithere.html} in your cern-http.conf file, you could just as easily reverse it.)
