In order to get the test-cgi script in cgi-bin to work, I had to modify the commonhttpd.conf <Directory /> setting to look like the 8.1 commonhttpd.conf settings:
<Directory /> # Options -All -Multiviews Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None # Order deny,allow # Deny from all </Directory> Oh, and I had to do a "chmod 755 test-cgi" as well.
