When I run CGI scripts from Apache I'm getting permission denied errors. use Net::protoent; my $p = getprotobyname(shift || 'tcp');
if (defined $p) {
printf("proto for %s is %d, aliases are %s\n",
$p->name, $p->proto, "@{$p->aliases}");
} else {
printf("Bad protocol 'tcp'\n");
}
This correctly turns ths string 'tcp' into the number 6 via lookup in
/etc/protocols when run from the pdksh prompt. Returns the bad protocol
error when run as a CGI script from Apache. Apache is being started (by
apachectl start) from the same shell prompt which correctly runs the script.
In general I'm finding that all network related calls (creating new sockets
and similar) are failing.
I also note (and think that it's related) that uname -n returns the correct
mixed case hostname when run from the shell prompt but returns an incorrect
(all upper case) string when run from the cgi-bin/test-cgi shell script.
This eliminates Perl from the equation.
I think this is the same problem as posted to this mailing list by:

I did not notice any follow up posts to these queries (my spam filter was
rejecting some Cygwin mailing list posts).
