cgi-bin Folder

If I create my own formbin folder what permissions need to be set on it to function as a cgi-bin folder? I was thinking of bypassing the cgi supplied by the hosting company because NOTHING works through it.



Thanks in advance for any information you might be able to give...

You probably need to work this out with your hosting company. Typically, there are top-level configuration directives that must be set in order for a given directory to be used as a cgi-bin (for security reasons). If something's not working, ask your hosting company to account for the failure rather than trying to work around something that it may be impossible to work around in the first place.
