Fair enough. I can't help you with Debian dependency

Errm. Do you have libpam and libdl? They should be in
/lib.

Errm. It would be much easier to just set a cgi-script
handler for the directory; that way, you won't have to
change the scripts to refer to one another as
<something>.cgi as opposed to <something>.
