Dear list,

I am newbie with MapServer.
I replace shape file in tutorial\example-1.map  to my world.shp file.
(It can display in ArcGIS very nice  =
http://digitalserviceinternational.hp.infoseek.co.jp/00lam/projectionImg/=
World.jpg)
I know its projection is WGS84. I declare as:

LAYER # States polygon layer begins here
  NAME         states_polyline
  DATA         World
  STATUS       DEFAULT
  TYPE         POLYGON

  PROJECTION
    #proj=3Dlonglat=20
    #ellps=3DWGS84=20
    #datum=3DWGS84=20
    #no_defs=20
     "init=3Depsg:32632"
  END

  CLASS
    COLOR      128 0 255
  END
END # States polygon layer ends here

I don't know the value of EXTENT. Some GIS engineers suggest I should =
put something like -7745844.3 -9997964.94 8745844.3  9997964.94.
MapServer returns a funny image. Here is result =
(http://digitalserviceinternational.hp.infoseek.co.jp/00lam/projectionImg=
/World-MapServer.jpg).
I guess something wrong with the datums WGS84 and NAD27 but I don't know =
how can I correct it.
Please help me.

Thank you.
