What I did was not to use the apache's cgi-bin default directory but a wEMBOSS_cgi: /whatever/wEMBOSS/cgi-bin and defined this directory as executable in the httpd.conf file. It should look like this: ########################################## ScriptAlias /wEMBOSS_cgi/ "/whatever/wEMBOSS/cgi-bin" <Directory "/whatever/wEMBOSS/cgi-bin"> Authtype basic AuthUserFile "/etc/shadow" require valid-user Order allow,deny </directory> Allow from all ############################### Please take into account that AuthUserFile can have different methods, this is just an example, but it should work. In this case what you are telling to the system is that wemboss will be accesed only for those users that are valid system users too. > > Operating system that I am using is Linux. GNU/Linux... cool!
