You are trying to access > http://localhost/~ja/cgi-bin/ Hi Ken. Yes, I clearly did not understand.

With a ScriptAlias directive, it does work, but has no additional functionality vs Tim's original Directive block. Reading the manual, it should work. I plan to keep playing with it. Using the ScriptAlias directive is not a problem for me, or for my friend. We both have a very limited number of users and a ScriptAlias line for each (or most) is no problem. Perhaps for an ISP, with many users, a separate ScriptAlias line for each user or most users would be an undesirable maintenance burden. So, in that case, it would be nice if the Directive block, by itself, was sufficient.
