Perl scripts on apache

Hi. I have windows 2000 and red hat linux 9 running on my machine.
I have a local site that I would like to visit in both OSes. The
problem is that it has perl scripts which run OK in windows, but when
i boot to linux I just cant get them to work. The scripts were written
for a Unix based system, and to get them to work in windows I had to
change #!/usr/lib/perl to #!perl.
The server in linux works fine with other pages.
Any ideas?

Change that shebang line [back] to fit your linux and add
ScriptInterpreterSource Registry
or
ScriptInterpreterSource Registry-Strict
to your configuration of apache on Windows.
The latter requires you to manually add some records to the registry
<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/core.html#scriptinterpretersource" target="_blank">http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/core.html#scriptinterpretersource</a>

You may have to modify your scripts to work with binairy files on Windows
and to properly recgnize the different line-endings on these two
platforms...
