I believe I have a temporary workaround.
In the rmserver.cfg file, there's a section like this:
<!-- H T T P S U P P O R T --> <List Name="HTTPDeliverable">
<Var Path_0="/admin"/>
<Var Path_1="/ramgen"/>
<Var Path_2="/farm"/>
<Var Path_3="/httpfs"/>
<Var Path_4="/viewsource"/>
</List>
On my Real server, I've removed this line:
<Var Path_4="/viewsource"/>
I *think* this only has the consequence that people can't pull down file
details for audio content for the moment. We can still serve up audio
just fine.
