Hello Daniel,
Use the OGR connection is very a nice solution.
Thank

You should be able to read those files via OGR.
i.e assuming you have built MapServer with OGR support, instead of
this:
LAYER
DATA "/path/to/shapefile"
...
END
use this:
LAYER
CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION "/path/to/shapefile.shp"
...
END
