Keith, That's exactly what my testing has shown but I was hoping someone out there had found a solution that I hadn't thought of. The PHP scripts I am referring to are spread out all over my /home NFS share. Most of these scripts belong to different departments with different webmasters most of which do not like other people touching their code. I guess I'll just have to inform them of the shebang requirement and see what they think.
Thank you for the input.

It seems that you have a chicken-and-egg problem here. In order for php to process the auto_prepend_file it has to be in php mode already. And to get into php cgi mode you need the #!/path/to/php-cgi at the top of the script. So I guess each php file *MUST* start with the #!/path/to/php-cgi to make the script use the php intepreter. Once the php-cgi script is active, the I guess you can use the auto_prepend_file feature in your php.ini file. Do you have alot of files to add the #!/path/to/php-cgi to? Are they all under the same sub directory? All I can suggest is writing another script to parse all your php scripts you want to add the #!/path/to/php-cgi to, at the start of each of those php scripts. You might be able to write a bash shell script to do this, or even another php script.
