RE: Forbidden

["Horner, Jonathan J. (JH8) " <JH...@y12.doe.gov>]

Okay, if the entire D: drive is shared, how is it shared.  You won't be able
to just type in the drive letter and make it work.  When you type in your D:
like that, it thinks it is just a name for a directory.  Notice how it
expects it to be under your document root (look at the error message).  If I
were you, I'd put in an alias for that directory, make sure it is a script
alias and call it like this: http://127.0.0.1/alias/AddVendor.pl.  This may
not be very secure, but that is another issue.

Something like:

ScriptAlias /perl-cgi/ D:<Directory which contains perl scripts>/ (I'm not
sure of the correct syntax on Win32 platform

<Directory D<...>>
	### Configure it here
</Directory>

Again, I have never really adminned an Apache server on Win32.  Along that
path awaits madness and misery.  Wait until Apache 2.0 and try it then.
