Make sure that the file has an extension of ".pac", e.g. call
it "proxy.pac". Then tell Apache about the MIME type. Adding
the following line to your Apache config should work:
AddType application/x-ns-proxy-autoconfig .pac
That's it. BTW, this has nothing to do with FreeBSD; shouldn't
you have asked on some Apache mailing list in the first place?
