Probably it is easiest to do something like

Code: [Select]

# cp cachemgr.cgi /home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/cgi-bin/
# chmod 755 /home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/cgi-bin/cachemgr.cgi


Then you can point your web browser to http://server.name/cgi-bin/cachemgr.cgi

It is probably a good idea to delete the copy of cachemgr.cgi afterwards, so no outsiders get a chance to run the file also.
