My only problem is that several (read as all) enviroment variables are not available to my cgi programs. I tested this with my own programs and the "test" bash script that comes with apache, in each case, I get a blank reponse for each of the variables (QUERY_STRING, SERVER_NAME, SSL_CIPHER...to name a few). If anyone has any ideas, as to what the cause is, please mail the list or me directly. tia dave - sys-admin ______________________________________________________________________ Apache Interface to SSLeay (mod_ssl) www.engelschall.com/sw/mod_ssl/ Official Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
