*** If you want I give you very little and simple configuration
(hiawatha.conf and cgi.wrapper) and very little perl script that work fine
under linux (debian lenny under very small monolithic kernel 2.6.30.5)

Personally I think many times better shut up and give the impression of 
being idiot than to speak and remove all doubt....

I do not think (I hope not) that Hugo have written him with bad intentions
and I must admit that I always helped where he could!

I hope only that the two plans on what marked to security can coexist together.

in over twenty years working in telecommunications I have learned a little, but 
that little I understood that it is not expedient lost in discussions without 
point of no return!

I've already written too ;-)
