Hi! Mod_fcgid is a nice substitute for mod_fastcgi, however, it really fails, when we talk about FastCgiAuthentication or AccessChecking. It just won't work.. We had interesting protection engine built and enabled using mod_fastcgi and it worked fine. With Mod_fcgid however it didnot :( So, if you need to setup custom Authentication/Access checking software, go for mod_fastcgi.
