Ok, I did figure out how to do it that way. So I have httpd working on port 81, have my own ASP page working.
I apologize if this is a noob question... but what server side scripting can I do? I tried to put some standard ASP in there like response writing "now()".
Is this active server pages? Something else? I'm having a hard time fiding documentation on what I can access with my own pages.

Ok, I tried that... but CGI files don't seem to do anything. If I rename the file ASP or HTML, it shows up... but does not execute. I just see the raw code (#!/bin/sh... etc...)
I tried using a HTTP control to get my CGI page (similar to wget). When I do that, it times out. No other pages time out, though. No specific error- just times out after hanging for 10 or so seconds.
from your own post, this comes from the shell not being executed at all.
go into /bin and find if sh is there, accessible and executable. If sh is not there, your script cannot run.
Until you can get your script to run from a telnet window, you cannot expect it to run in a browser.
I got a wired problem...I follow the instruction..and everything works fine...but I got confused about that whether the xxx.cgi file ran in browser would be downloaded or just shown in browser??
