[thelist] Testing ASP and CGI (Perl) on a Mac

[Arlen.P.Walker at jci.com]

OSX runs apache and perl quite nicely. Both are included in the standard
install. It's set up by default for cgi scripts to go in
Library/Webserver/CGI-Executables (and includes the rewrite rules to make
/cgi-bin refer to this directory) but you can, of course, configure apache
any way you want.

apache::asp module only allows asp scripting in perl. I'm not sure if
there's a VBScript module out there that can be added to it. MS is really
anal about letting VB show up on any platform except Windows.

Have fun,
