I installed mod-fastcgi with php5-fpm on apache2 like this and it works great!
Can you just tell me what to do to force apache2 to parse html files as php in this setup?

Thanks very much!
zmaxlin

Do you want this?

fastcgi.conf:
AddType application/x-httpd-fastphp5 .html

It will let apache2 pass .html files to php5-fpm
