Since were on the subject of cgi.
I setup apache and put a test site in the var/www/html/ directory. I
added some cgi scripts and programs I download from the net. However non
of them will work for me. I checked that I have the correct path to perl
But I still get Internal Server Error from the apache server.
I don't know what I am missing. 
Could someone help??
Thanks 
Aaron
