cgi not working :(

Ok fixed.  It turns out that Red Hat Roswell added tons of new perl module
RPM packages, so using Mandrake perl packages is no longer necessary.  The
perl MD5 module was already installed by default, but I needed to install
the DBD-MySQL module.  I tested your perl CGI script and it seems to be
working now.

I'll try to stop by sometime later this week, and I'll show you RPM package
installation and Rawhide.
