Firstly, -You need superuser access (root) Do you have that? - Your PERL CGI program do a "whereis perl" on telnet - Your cgi-bin problem - Type in "locate httpd.conf" to find httpd.conf - Type "pico httpd.conf" - Locate the virtualhost <yoursite> there should be a line called "scriptalias". IT should show something like scriptalias /usr/www/somewhere/cgi-bin/ Hope that helps On Wed, 17 May 2000, Chris Walterhouse wrote: > Our company just purchased a new server running FreeBSD but we have a couple > of questions that our server support can't answer because he's out of town > for a while: > > 1. where would you find the path to perl 5 if you were to FTP into the > server?
