If your web server is Apache, you need to designate your cgi-bin as a CGI
executable directory using a ScriptAlias directive, e.g.:

        ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/httpd/cgi-bin/

in your srm.conf file.  For other types of web servers, you need to figure
out the equivalent setup of CGI scripts or folders.

> Like #chmod 700 htsearch or what?

No, that would turn OFF execute and read permission for all but root.
