 I am shocked. It looks good from another machine. Let me add some 
 authentication stuff and see if I can scratch it.
 Is this the same way you did it? Did you just add some .htaccess 
 inside your cgi-bin dir?

I actually went the ModPerl route.  But the basics are the same.  An 
.htaccess file in the directory should work, as should putting the 
authentication requirements in the main (or an included) Apache config file.

It works now, so well I am wondering what the problem was in the first
place!
Perhaps a proxy in the middle was messing me up.
I am not the type to ask such a question as I asked, where the setup is
straight. I do believe the ISA2006 I have on the LAN was messing me up.

[BackupPC-users] Setting UP the CGI Interface
