[Xymon] new install issue

[Kris Springer]

This mailing list rocks!  That was it! Thank you Martin for pointing me 
to the apache2 module that needed enabled.  I added the cgid.load module 
to the /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/ directory and restarted the apache2 
service and everything started working like magic.  Good job. Thanks again!

Thank you.
