What finally worked came from an ubuntu forum dated some time last year: 1. send this command to apache: sudo a2enmod cgi My server responded with a warning, but then ended with Enabling module cgi. 2. Restart apache sudo service apache2 restart Once again, I got a warning, but the web browser began to do the right thing. In fact, those directories and symbolic links I made earlier were for nothing. It doesn't need /cgi-bin, even though it's in the URL, for example. It also doesn't appear to need a link to /usr, since it looks like there's a more secure way to access the manpages also. Thanks, Stewart for your help Paul
