I am using fedora core 5. I have my apache running perfectly. I have document root as /var/www/html There is a direcory "transfer" inside "/var/www/html" But when I put any *.doc file in "transfer", no one can access it. But they can access PDF files and all other files from the same directory , with same permissions set on all files.I tried settin chmod 755 on the files again. Still pdf, zip etc files go perfect , no luck with .doc files. I also upgraded to latest version of Apache too(2.2.2), still not working.
I also tried lighttpd as suggested by a friend, same problem there.
Also I am not able to upload .doc files as mail attachments in gmail/yahoo mail using Opera/Firefox/Konqueror. I can attach all other types of files though.
So basically, its like .doc files are not going out of my box to anyone in any manner....I have disabled SElinux at boot itself. I am at my wits end...dunno what to do..please help.

Hmm...i have FC5 too. Havent faced such an issue yet. Did you talk to the guys @ #fedora on freenode? Did they give you any pointers? This is seriously weird... did you try renaming the file as .<something else> and then trying to perform the same operations?
