Hi guys.
I did try to search this b4 i posted, but it seems the search engine is down temporarily.
My site is setup using apache on windows box.
The std cgi-bin in the root does work just fine.
I have created a password protected directory and
placed a 2nd cgi-bin inside of it.
This second cgi-bin is the one that i keep getting
a forbidden error. This is on windows so, no chmod.
ScriptAlias /cgibin/ "C:/Apache/Apache2/htdocs/ntg/cgibin/"
<Directory "C:/Apache/Apache2/htdocs/ntg/cgibin">
AllowOverride all
Options ExecCGI
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
i've tried various combinations but can't seem to find what it wants.
From localhost, i launch the site, hit the protected page,
and authenticate with no errors.
When, from the protected page, i click a link for the perl script, that's when it tells me forbidden.
I realise that this is cgibin and not cgi-bin.
That's because the htdocs dir has a cgi-bin folder
with a <directory> and ScitpAlias defined.
I figured could not have duplicates.
Hope this makes sense.
Thanks for any suggestions.
