Perl on PWS + Win98
Has anyone successfully installed Perl on Personal Web Server (the version that came with win98)? Or Perl on any win98 (freeware) server?

Thanks in advance,
BJ Strew

I installed ActivePerl
(http://www.activestate.com/) on Apache Win32 (http://www.apache.org/)
and edit the httpd.conf under C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\conf to enable
"AddHandler cgi-script .cgi" (without quotes)
and
"Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI All Includes"

And poof ... the apache runs cgi scripts smoothly.
