This is in reference to the query i posted earlier on this mailing list.
After sufficient amount of fiddling with the httpd.conf file, i have come to
a point where on trying to execute a .cgi file in browser, i get the 403
Forbidden Error. I have tried my best, and also went thru the whole apache
manual, but to no avail.i am attaching the httpd.conf file herewith, and i
would appreciate if someone would help me out ...
I am sorry if the attachment took a bit longer to download, but that was the
only way out for me...
Thanks a lot in advance,
Guarav
