There's always the thought of setting up your own webserver, which gives you
as much control as you want, and for free.
As for free CGI hosting, Hypermart comes to mind. They want your credit card
#, but supposedly don't charge you unless you violate their TOS.
About $ENV{REMOTE_HOST} not returning the correct IP: Tripod might be using
a proxy -- you might try using $ENV{HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR}. (I don't know if
it'll work, but it worked for me when I used f2s).
If you want real flexibility, though, you'll have to either pay
(PHPWebhosting.com works for me) or host your own site.
Hope that helps a bit,
