Try

var s:string;

s := getenv('SCRIPT_FILENAME');

{$ifdef FORNIX<curly bracket. my telnet client doesnt like em>

while s[length(s) <> '/' do delete(s,length(s),1);


{else<curly>

while s[length(s) <> '\' do delete(s,length(s),1);

{$endif<curly>

s := s + 'config.cfg';

Email me and Ill show you a cgi that shows all of the useful environment
variables available to cgis.
