[Mono-list] Hosting Silverlight applications on Apache2

[Jeffrey Stedfast]

The only problem I've come across hosting Silverlight apps over lighttpd
(did feel like configuring Apache for local testing) was filename case
sensitivity.

IIS seems to be case insensitive while lighttpd (and likely Apache) are
not.

Also, fwiw, I didn't have to add any mime types.
