To start I am working on a module that collects data. Since it does not
run on my system I only want to have it run with out change for my
system so when I return the module it will work properly with out
changes. The module is located on the other system at:
/usr/www/users/fgames/mufoncms.com. I only need it to run so I can check
my changes work properly. I should only have to type in localhost on my
browser to run it. I did not expect it to be so complicated :-)
So bottom line is I want to put localhost in my browser and have it run
the perl script sp_manage_sighting_reports.pl which is in directory
/usr/www/users/fgames/mufoncms.com.
Please if I have left anything out I will be glad to provide it. I have
two books I have been studeing for several days now and haven't moved
off ground zero.

There are lots of ways to accomplish this. Here is one:
Find the DocumentRoot directive in httpd.conf and set it as follows:
DocumentRoot /usr/www/users/fgames/mufoncms.com
Then add the following directive:
AddHandler cgi-script .pl
and make sure you have a <Directory> section that has at least
<Directory /usr/www/users/fgames/mufoncms.com>
Options ExecCGI
DirectoryIndex sp_manage_sighting_reports.pl
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
