Scott Hi Scott, In my understanding your script responds correctly from the configuration Directory /usr/local/systems/work/ PerlSendHeader On SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler Apache::Registry Options +ExecCGI # AUTH AuthType Apache::Authenticate AuthName protected PerlAccessHandler Apache::OpenAccess PerlAuthenHandler Apache::Authenticate-authenticate require valid-user /Directory Please, let me know if I'm wrong. Assuming it does, you would probably better try the following replacement: Directory /usr/local/systems/work/ PerlSendHeader On SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler Apache::RegistryFilter Apache::Dynagzip PerlSetVar Filter On PerlSetVar LightCompression On Options +ExecCGI # AUTH AuthType Apache::Authenticate AuthName protected PerlAccessHandler Apache::OpenAccess PerlAuthenHandler Apache::Authenticate-authenticate require valid-user /Directory It should compress all output from this directory. When you need to distinguish compression between different types of output, it's the most simple solution to run each type of outgoing content from the own directory. You might have one compressed directory and one plain then. Otherwise you need to write your own fixup handler to turn compression off dynamically. Please let me know if it works for you.

I guess, handler development will not be much easier for you.. Have you read Eagle Book?
