Re: need information

Hi Marc,

Thanks for you answer. I finally make it work.
I use C-cgi with apache server, and I was surprised how simple to move
to Fast-cgi.

An other, other question:
On www.fastcgi.com, there are several downloadable version of
mod_fastcgi for apache. (SNAP/ not not SNAP for instance), what are
the difference.

You said it was used on large website. Can you give some example. I
heard of amazon/ebay, is that true?

thanks you,
Sylvain
