Locally hosted CGI and HTML clipped to portlet window
Hello list:
Forgive me if this is a dumb question - I'm new to portals - in an
evaluation period. I need to make Jetspeed2 display the output of a C-code
CGI program in a portlet window. I've found the IFrame portlet and managed
to configure it to display a locally-hosted HTML file, and I found the Perl
and PHP portlets. Is there anyway to get IFrame to work with a compiled
binary CGI program, or is there another solution? Any pointers to proper
documentation would be appreciated.

Yes, that sounds about right.
Or you could us SSOIFramePortlet as well

David:
Thanks for your reply. So my alternative, if I understand this correctly,
is to host the CGIs in a locally installed instance of Apache, secure the
cgi-bin directory, and use SSOWebContentPortlet with a URL that looks
something like this "http://localhost/cgi-bin/cprogram.cgi". Does that
sound like I know what I'm talking about, or is there a better approach?

Along the lines of HTML web clipping, there is also a WebContentPortlet
and SSOWebContentPortlet. We don't have any specific binary CGI portlets
