I recommend doc2html.pl. See http://www.htdig.org/FAQ.html#q4.9 In any case, htdig 3.2.0b3 is pretty buggy, so I'd recommend getting the latest update rpms from Red Hat or a local mirror site, i.e. apache-1.3.22-2 htdig-3.2.0-1.b4.0.72 htdig-web-3.2.0-1.b4.0.72 Red Hat users should, as a rule, keep up to date on the latest errata at http://www.redhat.com/apps/support/errata/ It helps if you subscribe to their redhat-watch mailing list, so you get the advisories by e-mail when the updates come out. -- Gilles R.
