<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>After the reinstallation of Mapserver 4.2.5 I
noticed a malfunctioning in the behaviour of the GRID layers in my mapfile.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The proble is that the labels on the border of the
GRIDS are shown twice. This is because of the BUFFER parameter. Mapserver shows
both the label at the normal position (on the grid line) and also the buffered
label at a certain distance. I partially solv ed the problem eliminating the
BUFFER option in the label section. In the previously installed Mapserver
version (4.0) the same mapfile worked well and the buffer option acted as
it was expected putting the laber at 4 or 5 pixel distance from the
line.</FONT></DIV>

the mapfile:</FONT></DIV>
