You accidentally sent this to my personal address instead of via the list...

I don't really understand what you want to do. I explained already that you 
can't browse a CGI directory using its ScriptAlias. You can only browse 
directories using their filepath relative to the docroot. Even then, you have 
to have "Options Indexes" set in the scope of the target directory.

1) I hate having to plough through config files...
2) There is no point doing this if I don't know what you're trying to do.

Please explain:

- exactly what URL you want to want use
- exactly what you *want* to see on the screen
- exactly what you *do* see on the screen
ps - don't use the phrase "doesn't work"...
