No I don't. This machine is only for use as an OGo machine.

Tried:

<LocationMatch ^/OpenGroupware*>
<LocationMatch "^/OpenGroupware*">
<LocationMatch /OpenGroupware>

Nothing seems to fix it... strange indeed.

That's very easy! Thank you.

Well, the server also responds to the IP address after rebooting 
firefox, so my last message was bogus.

Anyway, I'm of to take a nap.


Thanks again for your help. I'll continue with this small but very 
irritating issue I'm having tomorrow :)
