This time for 'cgi-bin'. You will notice there is a section similar to the htdocs bit that defines cgi-bin. If you are going to run a web server it might be prudent to go through the apache configuration and documentation site to try and understand what the configuration file has set up for you. You can find the web server documentation at: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/
