As you poined out, it does read it. Besides, not specifying any ranges means
the entire file.

[ truss output ]

So this is the access-log? No error-log or ssl-log entries?

Is 10 the socket of the client? Is this SSL-encrypted data?

It mapped the whole file...

I'm quite suprised it doesn't say *anything*.

Does it every reply any data? What if you get the root page, a non-existing
page or anything? I trust it works if you get that document with your
browser?

I get a feeling there's something obvious we're overlook here...
