Gayathri,

Thank you for your suggestion. I checked this already, but everything 
seems to be OK. Since I can run mapserv QUERY_STRING=map=... from the 
command prompt with good output I guess there is no problem with the dll 
files. I can also run shp2img without problems. I am investigating right 
now if it has something to do with ports that are blocked (firewall & 
proxy). The server in question is a server that is accessible for the 
public and has almost all of its ports blocked. I will let you know how 
things are going,

regards,

Menno.
