Please do write something. It would be great to read: It'd be an interesting read for those who know how already, to see another perspective. It'd be a good reminder for those that have done it, but have gotten rusty. It'd be instructive for those just beginning with CGI on chroot'd Apache. The more people that can put competently put together a decent web service, the better. regards, -Lars
