Thanks for the message, I checked the link out. But it appears
they are not BOTH running as modules on the same Apache server? The
choices seemed to be to run one as CGI, or if you want both as modules
use another instance of Apache. We were hoping someone may have knowledge
of a solution that allows both to run as modules within the same
Apache instance.
