mod_perl is not too hard to install, but you need to carefully study the information in the mod_perl guide at http://perl.apache.org/guide to see all the approaches and considerations. Configuring mod_perl is relatively easy, but you need to plan things out. Again, the guide is indispensable. Once installed and configured, using mod_perl is a breeze. You can start with Apache::PerlRun and run your existing CGI scripts unchanged. For an additional boost in speed, you can covert them to run under Apache::Registry with some minor changes. mod_perl is *far* more than a faster CGI environment. I highly recommend investing the time and effort to get it working for you. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
