Think about it. You try to have the virtual directory /cgi-bin (www.blah.com/cgi-bin) to be linked to.....everyone's cgi-bin dirs.

You probably want something like this:

Code:

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/

<Directory /usr/lib/cgi-bin/>
    AllowOverride None
    Options ExecCGI
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

This will allow you to access and execute cgi binaries in a dir that looks like it's directly under the document root of the web server.

Then you could have a <Directory /home/*/public_html/cgi-bin> entry for users' personal cgi directories.
