I recently downloaded both perl and apache to my windows box. Looks like both installed just fine.
The only problem I have is that I don't know how to set up the localhost portion of the URL for running CGI/perl scripts.
For Example: http://localhost/cgi-bin/test.cgi
how do I configure the localhost portion of the URL? I'm not sure whether to put the name of my computer there, or to create my own ip or subnetmask or something like that. I'm pretty unfamiliar with this. Any suggestions?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
