Once again, what is in your error log? and access log that differs for successes and failures? It is important you answer questions I ask or there is no way we can help. If you enter http://cgi.epost.co.uk/property/rentprop/rent-prop-srch.cgi directly into your browser, does it work from any platform? Verify that cgi.epost.co.uk is supposed to be pointing to 193.164.194.2; if some systems had different DNS info they could be connecting to a completely different machine. Are you sure there is no difference between the machines where it works and it doesn't? eg. a firewall, different network, etc. This is almost certainly nothing to do with Apache.
