You hit the nail right on the head here :) the explanation in the config.pl 
file should be a little more descriptive so ppl - like me :) - don't get it 
wrong. Something like:

# Examples:
#     $Conf{CgiImageDir} = '/usr/local/apache/htdocs/BackupPC';
#     to access http://www.example.com/BackupPC
#     $Conf{CgiImageDir} = '';
#     to access http://backuppc.example.com/

Maybe this can be added by the authors?

Regards,

Michael.
