Actually this is the /home/ site anyway, so it is the same admin in any
case. however, Ive changed the owner and permissions many times to test it
out. Also a built a test script from scratch using vi and that has the same
problem.

I am getting close to recompiling cgiwrap with different parameters to see
how that changes things, but I dont know what parameters are set on the
cobalt by default - if anyone knows then let me know.
Or my other option is to turn cgiwrap off for that site but Im not too keen
on that.

It seems to me that cgiwrap is denying access to the scripts because of some
permission failure, but without any logs at all, I cant tell what the
problem is. It seems extraordinary to me that there are not debugging logs
at all for cgiwrap.
