Where do I place my CGI files?

SUMMARY

You can put your CGI files in any directory you create except the "cgi-bin".

DETAILED SOLUTION

We recommend you put your cgi files in the "cgi" directory that your account is originally setup with. The "cgi" directory is mainly put there for your convenience and is not a mandatory place for cgi files. However, we strongly recommend that you do not make use of any directory named "cgi-bin". The "cgi-bin" is a special directory that the web server makes use of outside your own account for global cgi scripts. Hence, any files existing in a directory named "cgi-bin" in your account directory will be inaccessible from the web.
