Hi,

Now, this is OT (sorry). Any hints from users of quixote uing Linux
Mandrake version 9.1 (or greater) Linux distribution  on how to do
successfully do the indirect running of demo.cgi?  The docs say I have
to add the line in Apache httpd.conf
 
  RewriteRule ^/qdemo(/.*) /www/cgi-bin/demo.cgi$1 [last]

Unfortunately, there are a lot of confusing places for httpd.conf's in
my system.

/usr/share/ADVX/compat/httpd.conf
/usr/share/ADVX/advx-migrate-commonhttpd.conf
/usr/share/ADVX/advx-migrate-httpd.conf
/etc/httpd/conf/commonhttpd.conf
and also 
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd2.conf
/etc/httpd/2.0/conf/httpd2.conf
/etc/httpd/2.0/conf/commonhttpd.conf

I picked on, say, /etc/httpd/2.0/conf/httpd2.conf and just appended

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/qdemo(/.*) /var/www/cgi-bin/demo.cgi$1 [last]

However, the http://localhost/qdemo/ does not work in my browser. I
have tried the other locations, and still no go.

TIA for any helps.

Ernie.
