Setting up Apache for Simple File Networking

I'm trying to setup Apache server 2.2 on a Windows XP box.  I have added the appropriate MIME's but I still can't get it to work.  The .brs part is working from what I can see.  The "Add a mime type for files with no extensions as application / octet-stream" I can't seem to get working.  I have added "application/octet-stream            ." to the MIME file and I still can't get pictures to display through a web browser.  Am I doing something wrong here?  I can attach the MIME file if that would help also.  

Thanks, in advance.

  I have checked out the Simple Networking Troubleshooting section.  I have tried to add the appropriate MIME's and am still having the same problem.  Please let me know if there is anything else I can do.

   

  Thanks,

  Step-by-step instructions are available in this FAQ:

  Please send the file from the currentLog folder on the unit's SD card.

  Is your SD card formatted as FAT32?

  If you publish a project directly to SD card using the Local Storage option, does it work?

  You need to create setup files for Simple File Networking, save them onto a blank SD card, insert SD card in the player and power it up. SD card should remain in the unit.

  Copy the attached script onto a blank SD card, and power up the unit with it. Unit will run a network test and display the results on the screen. Let us know the results.

  We are currently running the project off of an SD card.  As far as the network test, we were able to view the logs and it is connected to the network properly.  I can try the autorun script, but I believe the problem is with the apache MIME setup.
