I believe it does. But I am not sure what you mean by "other things in its
configuration". Are you talking about other things in httpd.conf or other
things in your Perl script?
If the httpd.conf, I can say that one thing that Win32Apache hates is
spaces in directories. Or at least it did 3 years ago. I really haven't
used Win32Apache recently. I tend to use Netscape under Windows because it
is nicer than IIS and I can test both Velocigen and PerlEx for accelerated
Perl. I used Linux and Solaris to test mod_perl and Speedy::CGI stuff.
If you are talking about problems with the perl script running under
Apache, then I would require more detail about what you meant by a problem
before venturing a guess as to what might have been wrong.

Gunther
