Also I may be seeing a perl issue instead of a Apache one... I have setup Apache on a Win2000 system with ActivePerl and can access the server form other computers in my network. Perl seems to work fine except: When retreiving the environment variables for example $ENV{SCRIPT_FILENAME} Unix gives a path with no drive: /home/user/public-html/cgi-bin/myperl.pl and windows includes the drive: C:/home/user/public-html/cgi-bin/myperl.pl Is there a way to prevent the drive from being included in the path? Is there a way to have the server "know" that files are at a path C:/root/morepathstuff/home/user/... but so that it reports that the path is /home/user/... Bottom line: Does the server always report the actual physical path when it provides the environment variables? If it is in the manual or the archives, I did not find the right key words to find anything about it...
