[sysop]

I have this same problem with apache 1.3, I can run apache as freeside and
it seems to function correctly. With the exception of the error caused by
not applying the patch to CGI-modules. Being a newbie at unix could someone
point me in the direction of an example of how to patch this file. I have
configured sendmail for our domain and about 30 other domains so I am not
completely ignorant, but just not sure where to start on the patch thing.


Thanks
Steve
