I did, but I was also trying to call the method statically. Forgive me if this is stupid, it's been many years since I've used Perl. What I'm actually doing is creating a proof of concept configuration for a mass hosting platform using suexec, chroot and PHP fastcgi. Thanks to your help, it is now working. Currently, I'm using PerlTransHandler to map the host name of the request to a filesystem path, which I'm storing in an environment variable. Then, in PerlMapToStorageHandler I am writing the FCGIWrapper configuration directive. The only "problem" at the moment is that I'm currently depending on mod_userdir to do the suexec bit, which means I have to place the PHP wrapper script inside the document root. This isn't technically a problem, but I'd rather place it somewhere else in the chroot jail where an uneducated user would be less likely to modify or delete it. I've tried setting User and Group myself instead, but I'm having trouble understanding Apache's security model in this context. I've just ordered a copy of the O'Reilly book on the subject, but any pointers you could give me would be much appreciated :) Regards Marcus
