[Xitami] PHP4 Installation Problems

[MATA Tech]

When I spoke of a virtual directory very late last night, lack of sleep 
made me type the wrong wording.  I meant to say that 'greene' was 
an alias.

As I have discovered (and, again, that may be due to human error), 
the Alias cannot be an "alias" at all if using PHP.  The alias must 
be the same name as the folder in which the website is stored.

After I get the server re-established, I will begin playing with 
variables to see if it is absolutely true for the alias to be the same 
name as the website root folder name.

Sincerely,
Brad Smith
