I need to run CGI scripts on IIS. How do I configure IIS so they will run?

First you need to install ActivePerl or Perl. You can download activeperl for free from
Once this is done you will have to configure IIS' Mapi to run .pl scripts. This is done in IIS management console.

Hint. Only allow Read/Execute of the CGI directory.
 
Thanks, that is exactly what I needed.
