NAME
       Ns_ConnReturnFile - Return a file as a complete response

DESCRIPTION
       This  routine is used to generate complete responses, including the HTTP status code specified by the status argument and appropriate head-
       ers followed by the contents of the file specified with the file argument.  This routine utilizes the underlying builtin  file-server  code
       (aka,  "fastpath").   As such, it shares the fastpath capabilities to automatically cache pre-read or memory mapped copies of the files and
       can safely support multiple, simultaneous responses.  The following headers are included in the output:

       Last-modified
	      Constructed based on the modification time of the given file.

       Content-length
	      Constructed based on the size of the give file.

       Content-type
	      Constructed with the given type argument.  If type is NULL, the type will be determined based on the filename using the  Ns_GetMime-
	      Type routine
