When asked why I prefer NetBSD to all the rest, my answer has 
always been, "Because they are always civil and kind to a moron 
like me."

The present question, about httpd and cgi-bin, is a perfect 
example; no one went out of their way to say that, "Obviously 
Bob, while floundering around trying to get cgi-bin to work, you 
installed bozohttpd, and took advantage of one of its 
differences from httpd."

And forgive me of course for chewing up yet more bandwidth that 
isn't free of charge to NetBSD (or, in fact anyone else making 
noise out here in cyberspace.)
