Enabling ArcSDE crashes MapServer

[Jeff McKenna]

Kristian,

I'm not sure what MS4W version you are using, but 2.1 was released to 
fix issues with the SDE and Oracle connections.  Both were tested and 
feedback from the community was that both work.  Other than that I am 
not sure of your problem.
