Hi there

I have a weird problem with some cgi files I am trying to incorporate into my JSP site. I am developing the site using IIS 4.0 and Tomcat 3.2. I have a cgi-bin inside the development directory which is setup as a "web application" within IIS to serve cgi and pl files. This scenario works fine for other sites on the same IIS machine. I have Tomcat running on the same IIS machine serving a web application that includes the same directory. When I link to the cgi files I just get the code written to the screen. I have checked, rechecked, deleted and added the dir and Im sure the config is correct. When I link to a cgi-bin external to the tomcat app directory it is all good.

Is there a problem with running CGI files through TOmcat? I thought anything other than JSP it passed on to IIS to handle.

Well as always all comments and suggestions are most appreciated.
