[Xitami] questions

[d calif]

I'm grateful there is a Xitami help list...... thanks

1. I subsribed a couple of days ago and have not recieved any mailed news 
list yet.

2. I'm Xitami newbie and have several questions.

Xitami v2.5c2

I intend my Xitamin web server to be a home private web site, on dynamic IP.

- How do I password protect the webpages main directory, so only those I 
give user id and p/w to can log in from the internet?
I used "defaults.aug"
[/webpages]
    userid=password

- How do setup Xitami to allow cgi/perl scripts ot run from any xitamin 
directory?   I tried the suggesting at  http://www.scrounge.org/cgi.htm,  it 
didn't work.  So I have resorted to using cgi/alias directories.

-I'm trying to setup WebApps portal scripts  http://www.web-app.org/.  I 
have successfully installed WebApps for several websites on hosting services 
with Linux.
WebApps installation went smooth except runs fine locally.
BUT  my Xitami setup uses internal ip, which doesn't work with Webapps.  I 
need to have a wildcard to serve pages externally.
http://192.168.0.102/cgi-bin/index.cgi  (is how my current setup looks) and 
doesn't work externally.
