SSI on iSeries V5R2 with Apache and Websphere 5.1

I am having trouble getting a server side include woking.

In the .shtml file (We are deploying it in a .ear file to WAS) we have:
<!--#include virtual="/HHSC/html/includes/hd_about.html" -->

In the Apache HTTP server config we have:

36 AddType .shtml text/x-ssi-html
37 AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .shtml
38 AddHandler server-parsed .shtml


in the web.xml for the web Project in Websphere we have
<mime-mapping>

<extension>shtml</extension>

<mime-type>text/x-ssi-html</mime-type>

</mime-mapping>

Anyone had success in a websphere/apache environment?

Thanks,

Rob

We have done JSP includes with WAS 5.0 on v5r2, but not any SSI.
