I have installed links on remote unix servers for web sites before.
However my boss has now got a new system Windows NT with a server he wants me to build a web site on the server, I have no experience with nt server and I am struggling.
I have downloaded active perl, and installed it in a directory
d:\inetpub\wwwroot\usr\local
hence my top line should work
I have set the .cgi to point to perl in the associations
I have downloaded links and set it up the way I would for web sites!!
But when i get the link to admin.cgi it wants to download?????
I am lost when it comes to directory structures, i.e. where is the base directory when using path lines I am assuming it is the hard drive (incidentally) I am using drive 'D'
I have also tampered about with the slashes - back and forward slashes as I am aware they are different in windows and unix, how far do you go with this.
I am sorry I know I am asking a lot but if I could get something running I am sure I could work it out from there, I knew nothing about web sites a year ago and have now built three of which links is on them all.
Any help at all would be appreciated
Thankyou
