I have set up my web server to use the Cgi-bin. I edited the httpd.conf file and added:

"ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/
I then restarted my web server. From my web browser I try to open " Then I get "error 403 forbidden You don't have permission to access /cgi-bin/hello.pl on this server."
I have given read, write, and execute permissions on all the directories/files I can think of that would deal with this. When I telnet into my box I can run "perl hello.pl and it works. any one know what I am doing wrong?
