Description

This is CGIWrap - a gateway that allows more secure user access to CGI programs on an HTTPd server than is provided by the Web server itself. The primary function of CGIWrap is to make certain that any CGI script runs with the permissions of the user who installed it, and not those of the Web server.

CGIWrap works with NCSA httpd, Apache, CERN httpd, NetSite Commerce and Communications servers, and probably any other Unix-based Web server software that supports CGI.

not function as expected:

  /usr/local/etc/cgiwrap.deny

===>   NOTICE:

The cgiwrap port currently does not have a maintainer. As a result, it is
more likely to have unresolved issues, not be up-to-date, or even be removed in
the future. To volunteer to maintain this port, please create an issue at:
