yes, and no, you can make .cgi (or whatever) one of the types of index
files searched for as a default page for a folder, and it is allowed to be
a cgi, so you can make the default homepage something like index.cgi,
however, using cgi-bin as a location for it will probably make
things rather messy, as you will be coding a hard path into the index
filename and all of your home pages will probably try to use it...
alternatly, just use an index.shtml that does nothing but include a .cgi
(eg, server includes)
go to the apache site and search for directory ;)
