Well, that was interesting.
Using the above RewriteRule I did a test. And the only way it works is
if I rename the calling .html file to .shtml. Which, obviously, defeats

Is this something that can configured/over-ridden using the .htaccess
file? Or is it at the server configuration level (which I do not have
access to)?
