Both, but WMS is highly recommended, because using MapServer as CGI is prone to hide errors due to misconfiguration. (Setting up WMS requires only adding: metadata web wms_srs "EPSG:4326" end end to your mapfile to work minimally; everything else is optional.) The recovery map example has a significant amount of code, but it is using the trunk version of OpenLayers with no additional features. The UI, some of the popups, the layer addition/removal are all additional pieces added to that UI, but there are other toolkits (Like GeoExt) that provide these in open source software as well.
