Does Debian have anything like SELinux which would > prevent CGI execution? Hmm. I created a test cgi on the server in the system Apache, and it executed properly. Ah, but then I checked the module loads in the FDS admin-serv/config/ admserv.conf, and the cgi module was commented out -- thanks! I can now access the web admin server from the local machine. Can't get to it remotely, even though I followed the instructions described here: http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Howto:AdminServerLDAPMgmt But I can now see it working, and that's more than I had before. I'm sure I'm just a few tweaks shy of getting remote access working. Thanks for your help and patience! d
