If you mean, do ISPs exist which allow cgi-bin execution of content such as http://www.example.com/~user/script.cgi (or whatever)...? Sure, it's a service which is available. It's typically something which involves hosting fees (but that includes stuff like a $99/year mac.com account (*)), which go up in cost as you head towards having a dedicated machine or a dedicated rack at a colo facility. -Chuck To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
