Jaime,


No problem, that's what we're here for. This was actually a fairly common
issue a while back, as the equivalent of "AddHandler cgi-script .sh"
sometimes needed to be added, depending on how the distro configured
apache by default and where people put things.

The opposite problem occasionally happened too where the HTML man pages
for .cgi's would attempt to be executed instead of sent.
