Hello
I am using Perl/CGI on Linux (with Apache).
Nice choices.

Some users have cookies disabled in their browsers and some are using the
old ones, which cause problems, along with Netscape.
Anyhow, I am looking for following solutions
1. How do we know the Operating System of the Client's system?
You can't reliably, you should avoid developing products on the web that rely on a particular client OS or browser as that was not its intended use to begin with, what if your client is viewing your pages on a cellphone? What browser is your client using that doesn't support cookies? More than likely if the client has cookies turned off then they know how to turn them on and why you would need to be using them and will do so if they really want your product.

2. Where can I find some good documentation on Session implementation using
CGI?

Do a google search for "saving session state in cgi" or something similar, there have to be hundreds of articles/resources on this on the web. Just about any book on CGI will tackle this subject as well.

Good luck,
