Re: Apache cgi-bin for users
While I've never run things from
/home/*/public_html/cgi-bin/somethinghere.cgi,
we've always had to recompile suexec to get things working.
suexec has hard-compiled in the allowed directory, so you'd need to
recompile that to get some other directory to work.
I suggest you try that.
Sincerely,
Jason
