Installing CGI
Use and complete the template provided. The entire template must be completed. If you don't, your post may be deleted!
1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data:
The objective of this project is to learn how to configure the apache web server. The goal is to make cgi work on the webserver that we just installed.
2. Relevant commands, code, scripts, algorithms:
httpd.conf file
3. The attempts at a solution (include all code and scripts):
I've looked at the httpd.conf file and researched on apache.org, but have had very little success and my instructor is very unwilling to hep at all.
4. Complete Name of School (University), City (State), Country, Name of Professor, and Course Number (Link to Course):
University of Illinois, O'Reilly School of Technology, Kelly Hoover, Unix 1: The Unix file system
Note: Without school/professor/course information, you will be banned if you post here! You must complete the entire template (not just parts of it).
Please help! I have absolutely no idea how to do this and have done a lot of legwork on apache's website and other sites trying to understand how to do this, but I'm not having success. My instructor refuses to give any help other than restate the question again and again, so I really appreciate feedback. Thanks!

If I have a Perl CGI script (script01), which fills an array(s) with information and outputs a HTML page with a link to another CGI page (script02); is there anyway to pass the array(s) from "script01" to "script02" when the page visitor clicks the link?
Hope that makes sense!

DESCRIPTION
hobbit-nkview.cgi is invoked as a CGI script via the hobbit-nkview.sh CGI wrapper.
hobbit-nkview.cgi matches the current critical statuses against the hobbit-nkview.cfg(5) file, and generates the "Critical Systems" view.
RELATION TO BBNK PAGE
This view is a replacement for the statically generated "bbnk" page provided in versions of Xymon prior to version 4.2. Although the "bbnk"
pages are supported throughout Xymon 4.x, it is recommended that You switch to the newer Critical Systems view provided by this CGI.
OPTIONS
--nkacklevel=NUMBER
Sets the acknowledgment level for acknowledgments sent via the hobbit-ackinfo.cgi(1) page. Note that this may be overridden by the
configuration of the hobbit-ackinfo.cgi utility.
--env=FILENAME
Loads the environment defined in FILENAME before executing the CGI script.
--area=NAME
Load environment variables for a specific area. NB: if used, this option must appear before any --env=FILENAME option.
