I am having a problem running the WWW cgi scripts writen in perl.
My scripts are owned by nobody and when started by www client
she/he gets response: whatever.cgi: permission denied

Everything works fine when root executes them locally.

I didn't change BSD default definition of nobody. Is it a problem, or
something else? Please help!
