Subject: Enabling SSI

Here's an excerpt from /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:

<--------------------------->
# This should be changed to whatever you set DocumentRoot to.
#
<Directory "/var/www/html">

#
# This may also be "None", "All", or any combination of "Indexes",
# "Includes", "FollowSymLinks", "ExecCGI", or "MultiViews".
#
# Note that "MultiViews" must be named *explicitly* --- "Options All"
# doesn't give it to you.
#
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes
<--------------------------->

Here's another:

<--------------------------->
    # If you want to use server side includes, or CGI outside
    # ScriptAliased directories, uncomment the following lines.
    #
    # To use CGI scripts:
    #
    #AddHandler cgi-script .cgi

    #
    # To use server-parsed HTML files
    #
    AddType text/html .shtml
    AddHandler server-parsed .shtml
<--------------------------->

I've added "Includes" to the options statement and uncommented the "AddType" and "AddHandler" lines 
(actually, there came uncommented).

Nontheless, my .shtml page isn't showing the results of the command,

<!--#include virtual="/var/www/cgi-bin/news/news.txt" -->

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
