I don't have a lot of time to look at this right now,
but my first reactions are that maybe the units should me set to METERS.

Also, you might want to try an epsg code for your utm projection,
instead of setting each parameter.

Hi!
i doubt that the map file has a great deal to do with it,

here it is..

i set the extent etc from cgi-parameters

NAME M6H2_

units kilometers
SIZE 800 600

SHAPEPATH "c:/PF/AG/apache2/htdocs/ms/data"
FONTSET "c:/PF/AG/apache2/htdocs/ms/fonts/fonts.list"
SYMBOLSET "c:/PF/AG/apache2/htdocs/ms/symbols/symbols35.sym"

IMAGETYPE swf
IMAGECOLOR 255 169 191

WEB
  TEMPLATE s6dev.html
  IMAGEPATH "c:/PF/AG/apache2/htdocs/tmp/"
  IMAGEURL "/tmp/"
END

PROJECTION
  "proj=3Dlatlong"
  "ellps=3DWGS84"
  "lat_0=3D0"
  "lon_0=3D0"
END
above projection works fine,
but not the one below, regardless of zone

PROJECTION

"proj=3Dutm"
"zone=3D30"
 "ellps=3DWGS84"
"datum=3DWGS84"

END

this is the layer
LAYER=20
PROJECTION
  "proj=3Dlatlong"
  "ellps=3DWGS84"
  "lat_0=3D0"
  "lon_0=3D0"
END
  NAME baks
  DATA drainage/world_oceans_rectangle
  STATUS default
  TYPE polygon
  CLASS
    NAME "muts"
    COLOR 151 169 191
  END
END # end of layer object

it really is strange, i will check to see if i can get it not to draw
using some other projections
