	Okay, Apache is still giving troubles.

	When I go to use the document 
http://arh0061.urh.uiuc.edu/~dannyman/feedback.html and click the "submit" 
button, using Matt's Script Archive FormMail.pl, lynx returns the following;

POST to /~dannyman/cgi-bin/FormMail.pl not supported.

	The script is set to executable, and works just fine on the 
similiarly-configured http://www.enteract.com/~dannyman/feedback.html 
apache server ...

	Righto, contents of access.conf ...

<Directory /usr/local/www/cgi-bin>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
</Directory>

<Directory /usr/local/www/data>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
XBitHack Full
AddHandler cgi-program .cgi
AddHandler cgi-program .pl
</Directory>

# <Limit GET POST>
# order allow,deny
# allow from all
# </Limit>

<directory /home/*>
Options All
AllowOverride All
XBitHack Full
</directory>

	If I leave in the <Limit> bits, I get syntax errors at startup 
saying that order and allow are not permitted there.

	Any suggestions welcome! TIA1
