free place that hosts custom cgi and perl

[Magman]

hi i am trying to learn perl and I was wondering if anyone here knew of a place that would host my custom cgi and perl for free. I dont need anything fancy just support for custom cgi. If anybody knows anything please let me know.

You can put Perl and Apache on the box you used to post this thread. If all you want to do is learn, then that will do everything you need without having the hassles of dealing with a host provider...... and it is not terribly difficult to do.

supports .cgi- and .pl-scripts and it's free. The only disadvantage is a agressive pop-up that pops up every three minutes. I use this site only for testing my scripts!

I use cgi101.com for my testing site. It's not free but a mere $10 a month gets you CGI programming in Perl, C, PHP and others, plus a MySQL database. Oh - and no popups!
