I've been fighting with trying to get PUT scripts working on my
server off and on for six months, searching the web for examples
and following them without success.  It turns out that the
problem was that I was using the file system path name for the
cgi argument of the 'script PUT' directive instead of the URL.
The script ran, but an error message was generated that said
that the full filesystem path name, with the location of the
PUT file appended, did not have permission for a PUT request.
Needless to say, this totally confused me and lead to six months
of a non functioning site.

Hmm.  Although I'm submitting this as a doc bug (script should
be explicit about what it is expecting for the 'cgi-script'
argument), the actual bug may more properly be a bug in the
error message that results from putting the wrong thing
for that argument...
