in reply to flock problem

Not really related to the problem at hand, but try to find less obvious names for cgi programs. A lot of scanners do searches for common filenames with common extensions (login.pl, login.cfm, login.asp, login.cgi), so if you have a file named this, they will come back later and try to crack it.

Avoid the temptation, don't throw them a bone.
