The ScriptAlias tells Apache that the alias "cgi-bin" points to the /var/www/cgi-bin/ directory (in your case) and that scripts can be run from that directory. So when you browse to http://www.some.address/cgi-bin/admin.cgi Apache has to have the cgi-bin defined so that it can look for (and find) admin.cgi to execute it. The ScriptAlias directive allows scripts in the cgi-bin directory to be executed. If you look in your httpd.conf you will find the ScriptAlias directive for the /cgi-bin/ and if it does not point to your /var/www/cgi-bin/ directory, then, you need to change it to that directory or move your script into the directory cgi-bin points to.
