Greymatter On a Free Host

[RoxiePeroxide]

I have an free web host account with Tripod, which despite what people say is actually a very decent free host. It has a CGI-BIN which is very important to me because I intend to run Greymatter on my site. I had absolutely no problems with the uploading in ASCII and the CHMODing and all but now Tripod seems to have something wrong with a Perl module on it's server and my scripts won't run. Does anyone know if it's even possible to run the Greymatter CGI scripts on a free account with CGI access but not a personal CGI-BIN? Several other free servers offer CGI access but not a CGI-BIN, so what I'm saying is would I be able to create a regular directory and then install Greymatter there or should I find a different host with a CGI-BIN?

tripod cgi seldom works anyway, their cgi support sucks, go find another host

Agree! Tripod suck, if you want to do greymatter get some site to hosted you that allow CGI.

That's strange... you don't have to chmod on NT servers, therefore tripod. You wouldn't have even been able to do it. Tripod cgi is wrapped like the baby jesus... you can't get a script through.
