I've never used Apache::PerlRun to run old CGI scripts, always used Apache::Registry so this might work for you - YMMV Alias /cgi-perl /home/whatever/cgi-bin <Location /cgi-perl> SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler Apache::Registry </Location> Then call scripts as /cgi-perl/yourscript.cgi instead of /cgi-bin/yourscript.cgi As I said, your mileage may vary - I've always had good success with it, but a script that's not so nicely written can (and probably will) suck up memory or cause other "interesting" problems. -- Bernhard van Staveren - madcat(at)ghostfield.com GhostField Internet - http://www.ghostfield.com/ "A witty saying proves nothing, but damn it's funny!" - me, 1998
