What I need to do so that my CGI scripts can work at Sigmawebhost servers?

First of all you need to create .htaccess file in dir from which you want to use your CGI scripts (If you want that dir be mainwebsite_html you just need to add rules into file because it is already created. Do not erase your .htaccess file in your mainwebsite_html dir because that will brake your Frontpage Extensions configuration): Options +FollowSymlinks Options +ExecCGI AddHandler cgi-script cgi pl After that in editor create a simple test program: #!/usr/bin/perl print “Content-type: text/html\n\n”; print “Sigmawebhost Rules”; After that save it under the name test.cgi change the attribute of that file to 755 that is, do a command chmod 755 test.cgi. Than go to http://www.yourdomain.com/test.cgi and check does your CGI script works.
