tomcat to run perl cgis?

Hello,
I have Tomcat 4.0.3 running on my NT box. I do mostly servlet work, but I have the need to run a Perl CGI for a web project. I have put some .pl files and .cgi files into the docroot, but they do not execute properly. Is there a way to allow Perl to run with Tomcat? Could someone advise me of a path I could take to get them to run?

Thanks,
Scott

Scott,
Have you looked in your $CATALINA_HOME/conf/web.xml for more info about 
running cgi scripts in Tomcat? That might be all you need; I haven't 
tested this out, but it looks pretty straight forward...

best of luck,
Liam Morley
