Found out that the apache server is the culprit in here. I have enabled the option: AddHandler cgi-script .cgi If I change the naming of that rpm to NOT include .cgi. it works. With .cgi. in the name it times out and I get an error in the http-logs saying: [Error] Options ExecCGI is off in this directory Is this a bug in the apache rpm or is this the expected behavier? -- Sjoerd ----------------------------------------- This email was sent using SquirrelMail.
