Scott,

You can certainly do that but I don't know if it's safe or not. Better still, keep the MapServer-related files to a directory outside of your CGI directory leaving only the Mapserv CGI program. Use the SetEnv parameter in Apache to add this new directory in your PATH. This is only doable if you can edit the Apache configuration that pertains to your web site.

My web hosting service is linux based, and provides CGI capabilities.

Is it possible to simply upload the executable MapServer CGI file and related support files into my CGI file structure so I can run MapServer from my web site?

I know you can do something similar with the ms4w package by putting mapserver.exe and related dll's, etc. into the CGI directory structure of an existing Apache based Windows install.
