Hello all,

Sorry to be a bit off-topic. The only reason I even feel okay posting this is because I'm asking indirectly about CGI scripts in Perl.

I've been writing scripts in Perl for some time and testing them on my Win2K/XP boxes using ActiveState and the Win32 port of Apache - but as can be expected, anytime I do anything with files, I have to code it twice - my webhost runs Red Hat 7.1, so I have to change file paths, etc.

Now, there's a module from CPAN that I want to use, that ActiveState hasn't ported. I'm curious if anyone has ran Apache under Cygwin and used Cygwin's Perl in conjunction with it, and what their experiences have been. I'm going to be trying it myself, but I may as well ask to see if someone has gone before me in this path.

Thanks. :)

~Brian
