I'm presuming thats the file within Synchronet that is for using php as cgi? 
Or is this somewhere within the php directory itself?

Then perhaps in the future, someone who has gotten it working that way might 
be generous enough to give you their config files to throw into a future 
release.

Obviously no one expects you to package php itself within Synchronet. There 
would just be an empty /php/ dir and it would be up to the Sysop to put the 
nessesary files in it.

 Which can be found via what link? Hrmmm... you ussually post documentation 
links. Odd that you didn't this time.

Unfortunately that deals more with programming code that front end web stuff 
and as you know I'm not a coder, so please excuse my ingorance on what I may 
not know and / or questions I might ask in the wrong way.
