What about the ScriptAlias option in httpd.conf, or am I missing the point? I believe you can put it in a virtual host, so that it looks like the following:
<VirtualHost www.virtualhost1.tld> ServerAdmin [EMAIL PROTECTED] DocumentRoot /home/virtualhost1/html ScriptAlias /home/virtualhost1/cgi-bin </VirtualHost> Eirik Dentz wrote: > > I want to set up some basic virtual hosts inside my /home directory like > this: > > /home/virtualhost1 > /home/virtualhost2 > > I want to give each virtualhost its own cgi-bin.

Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- It's a shame that a family can be torn apart by something as simple as wild dogs.
