Hello there, I've read through the documentation on the rewrite directives for apache and it seems overly complex for what I want to do. Which is when a browser selects http://www.domain.com/R&D/cgi-bin/newscript.pl this link from the NT Server it will actually call http://www.freebsdbox.com/R&D/privat-cgi-bin/newscript.pl from the freebsd server and which actually display back in the location bar http://www.domain.com/R&D/cgi-bin/newscript.pl can this be accomplished with an Alias of some kind or can i just put rewrite http://www.freebsdbox.com/R&D/privat-cgi-bin/newscript.pl http://www.domain.com/R&D/cgi-bin/newscript.pl into the httpd.conf file ????? As for modules. What is a recommended list of Perl Modules for a box that is being used by cgi developers and website developers? Also PVM is running on the box and soon ORacle 8 via linux libs. Honestly, I don't know very much about PERL, Apache or UNIX :^( Phil Drew Baxter wrote: > At 08:58 PM 3/1/99 , Ben J. Cohen wrote: > >> Frequently what you're describing is PNP.
