You may need to have perl-suid (or perl-suidperl, depending on your linux distro and packaging) installed. Or maybe httpd-suexec for some versions... And you don't see much in the web interface until you can log in as and admin user - so apache has to be configured to request a login for the location and you need to have your login in $Conf{CgiAdminUsers}. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Better than sec?
