[cobalt-users] cgi-bin on an XTR



I've searched the archives, and understand that the RAQs allow you to run
cgi scripts anywhere, and to just create a folder called "cgi-bin".
However, now this folder is browse-able.

I can put a blank index.html file in that folder to keep from browsing it,
or use an .htaccess file with "indexignor *" or "Options -Indexes"

I've also read about making the permissions 444 for the cgi-bin directory -
the problem with this one is that only root seems to be able to browse it
after that (in SSH or telnet)

I'm fairly new to the RAQ line, and am wondering what the best, most secure
yet easy way to have a cgi-bin is.

Thank you!
