I did read the Docs for the ScriptAliases, and i understand that
everything in there is suppose to be exec. But you are not understanding
I used to, my friends, and etc... all have the same setup, we have this
cgi that we use, and it holds *.jpg, *.html, etc file in the dir. and
yet theres still works fine because it does not try to exec. the images,
and html files. Mine does, my ScriptAliases are setup the same excat way
as theres are, and still dosn't work.
Do you have any other ideas of why this might happen?
