Several people have responded so I thought I'd post my solution...
In commonhttpd.conf (someone keeps changing the configuration file) there were
the following lines...
<Directory /var/www/cgi-bin>
AllowOverride All
Options ExecCGI
</Directory>
and I inserted a couple of lines so it now reads...
<Directory /var/www/cgi-bin>
AllowOverride All
Options ExecCGI
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
I dont know if this is good or bad, but it's workin for me :)
Thanks all
