I am having problems setting permissions for CGI, Please help. I get the
error:

Method Not Allowed
The requested method POST is not allowed for the URL /cgi-bin/hello.pl.

Following are the setup parameters & permissions:

the cgi-bin directory is located in g:\u\html\dphone\cgi-bin - dos notation
