Hi there. I'm kind of new to un*x, and I'm having an incredibel amount of
trouble figuring out how to configure the cgi-bin directory so that it
works. All the references I've found ask tell me to consult the sysadmin,
but he is I, and I don't know. Talk about endless loops. 
   Anyway, I'm running some version of FreeBSD on a 5ium and Apache. I have
general knowledge about how this stuff works, but this is too much. So if
you've got some free time and want to help, here's my email address:

radagast@radicalcomputing.com

   If I've posted in an inappropriate group, I'm sorry. Directing me to the
correct group would be a great favor.

Thanks in advance to anyone who replies,
BC
