"...verify this by having your script log its start time, process ID, version and the full path and modification time of the file loaded..."

I've implemented logging to view the pid's and yes, I'm seeing duplicate numbers. I can figure out how to view the version, full path & modification time of a different file, but how would you view the current file that is being executed? It looks like there are entries in the log for each execution. Would it be a safe assumption that each request is being handled by the server in question and not a problem with the network infrastructure?

"...By "standard CGI script" I mean a script that is read from disk and executed once for each request. An implication (or perhaps I should say assumption of mine) is that a perl interpreter is started for each request. This is in distinction to a script running in the context of mod_perl, FastCGI or some other context which transforms or encapsulates it in a persistent process that handles several requests before terminating..."

I *THINK* it's a "standard CGI script", but honestly, I'm not positive... This started out as a basic site someone else designed using login sessions. Since I've taken it over, I've added modules and additional sections to the site that are all blanketed under the session. I DO have "use CGI ':standard';" in my code. Does that make it a "standard CGI script"?
