[erlang-questions] running inets httpd on windows

[June Kim]

> http://localhost:8080/config.shtml
> http://localhost:8080/exec.shtml

The reason that the two links above didn't work was, there was some
*nixism in the file, such as:

<!--#exec cmd="ls"-->
<HR>
<!--#exec cmd="printenv"-->
<HR>
<!--#exec cmd="sunemaja"-->
<HR>
<!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/printenv.sh"-->

The ERROR REPORT thing still remains though.
