Example: ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/ This makes the web address "http://your.server.com/cgi-bin/"; treat the contents of "/usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/" as CGI files no matter what extension they have, or if they have no extension at all! Note that the trailing slash in the directory name is important; ScriptAlias /cgi-bin ... ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ ... Are both different. As a general rule, you should always include the trailing slash, as leaving it off may lead to problems on some set ups. You may also want to look at the <Directory> directive for Apache, which allows you to control how specific directories are handled.
