ok, my private cgi-bin folder might not be declared.

i have now downloaded the proxy.cgi to the directory the mapserv-binary, 
which works fine, is located at. the mapserver wouldnt work in a 
directory that is not declared as a cgi-directory in the apache config, 
right?

now i get the same error i tried to fix using the proxy.cgi. here is a
