   	    $OUT .= "    Alias       /$key/files   $basedir/files\n";
   
   	    # Make sure this one is last since it's a prefix of the above
   	    # aliases. If we put it first, it would get expanded before the
   	    # other aliases, creating problems.
   
   	    $OUT .= "    Alias       /$key        $basedir/html\n";
