In the default apache2 installation on Ubuntu you get the following setting in the default virtual host:-
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
This means that CGI scripts are in the /usr hierarchy which doesn't seem very helpful. Is the the norm for apache2 or is it just Ubuntu's doing?
I'm thinking I either want to point it to some suitable /home/<user> directory or possibly somewhere below /var/www, is there anything wrong with doing either of these (assuming suitable security protection of course).
