Yes but I'm not sure if I did it correctly. Another person here, Keith,
instructed my how to do so, but I have a question about that. He said to
type in the following in httpd.conf. I typed it there and also in
commonhttpd.conf. My script still won't run, because of a "file not found"
error.
<Directory /www/cis/cgi-bin>
AddHandler cgi-script cgi
Options +ExecCGI
</Directory>
Question: is /www/cis/cgi-bin as absolute or relative path? Is it relative
to documentroot?

Please respond to
newbie
Mitch,
Did you tell Apache (i.e. in the configuration files)
which directory would function as the cgi directory?
