I have a MrSID file in NAD83 projection (EPGS 4269) which I want to display via 
WMS in WGS84 projection (EPGS 4326). I cannot get this to work.

I have tried setting the entire map-file's projection to 4269, with the extent 
specified in that projection (in meters), and shp2img shows the image, but 
attempting to view it via WMS (requesting the 4326 projection) does not work, 
and the GetCapabilities response file is completely wrong - the 
LatLonBoundingBox tags actually list the 4269 bounding box in meters. Excerpt:

    <LatLonBoundingBox minx="555230" miny="5.04658e+006" maxx="556972" 
maxy="5.04804e+006" />
    <BoundingBox SRS="EPSG:4269"
                minx="555230" miny="5.04658e+006" maxx="556972" 
maxy="5.04804e+006" />

The BoundingBox is correct; the LatLonBoundingBox obviously is not.

I have also tried specifying 4326 as the map projection and 4269 as the layer 
projection, with the map's extent in lat/lon and the layer's extent as the 
above value (meters). Not only did this not work, but even shp2img just shows a 
blank image. If I change the map's extent to the value in meters (even though 
its projection is specified as 4326), then shp2img works, but the WMS feed 
still does not; the GetCapabilities still is wrong.

Is MapServer simply buggy or is there a 
solution?_______________________________________________
