I need some help with my httpd.conf
what changes do I make to the httpd.conf file to allow ExecCGI in another directory besides the cgi-bin?

Thanks,

If I understood your question correctly you could simply type this in your httpf.conf

AddHandler cgi-script pl

Here's how you'd do it. Put this in your httpd.conf file:

<Directory /path/to/where/you/want/execcgi>
Options ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
</Directory>

Change that path to where you want them to be executed, for example, /home/*/public_html.

Hope this helps :)

Yes, thanks!

That is what I was looking for.
