	Well the old Sun4 is dying (got some parity errors and 
	died this morning -- cleaning the SIMMS contacts has 
	brought it up for now -- but ...)

	So my boss is finally following my advice and letting me 
	configure a PC with FreeBSD to take over that role
	(as the primary DNS server, and mailhost for our domain).

	While I'm at it I'd like to a webserver on that box to 
	redirect any HTTP traffic to our main web server (www.mcafee.com)
	(basically to gracefully redirect anyone who requests:
	http://mcafee.com).  I know how to use a CGI-bin to do a 
	redirection (just 'echo "Location: http://www.mcafee.com"; echo')
	But how can I do that with my main index.html file?  

	Can I do this with some <META ...> tag or with X-bit hack
	and a <!--#Exec > (server-side include)?

	I'll have some other questions on this -- I'm sure.
