Well, to start with you will want to run install.cgi from the browser, and not SSH/Telnet Wink

What are you talking about?

install.cgi can be run from ssh/telnet and works just as well and infact is a safer installation method as you aren't likely to suffer timeouts.

I guess the first thing to check is the permissions - is it executable?
