Hello,
I was asked by a high power to create an interactive web site for
our computer lab. Unfortuanlly have zero web experience. I was able
to as far as trying to execute a perl cgi script. When i click 
submit i get an error: Method not allowed, reqest post is not allowed
for URL. I looked on the net and i get the impression that, you need
to have a cgi dirctory in the access.conf file (oh yeah, and i'm
sure that the permissions on the cgi-script are executable). Can
any one confirm this? 

I then tried to put the scripts in the directory that was suppose
to be for cgi scripts, and i get an Internal Server Error. I did
check permissions on this directory. I'm not convinced that this 
cgi directory that i put the scripts in is the right directory. 

Suggestions on how to fix these errors? 
Thanks,
--Brad
