RE: [cobalt-developers] Allowin a .exe file to run for a specified site?

["Ervin Tarkhanian" <ervin@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you all for the info.

These are compiled python executables, sorry I didn't make that clear in the
beginning.  I can't open the files and modify them, and source code is not
provided.

In that case, those are not EXE files, but probably a perl scripts who
were just renamed to work with micro$oft's webserver nicely...

So if those are really not executables, it could be that you can just open
them with a text editor and change the name of script you're casting the
info to, to a .cgi extension.
