fcgi-cgi¶

Description¶

fcgi-cgi is a FastCGI application to run normal cgi applications. It doesn't make CGI applications faster, but it allows you to run them on a different host and with different user permissions (without the need for suexec).
lighttpd2 won't have a mod_cgi, so you need this FastCGI wrapper to be able to execute standard cgi applications like mailman and cgit.

nginx recommends something similar, they implemented the wrapper in Perl: http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxSimpleCGI
