- <p>Except for the optimizations and the additional <a href="#scriptsock" class="directive"><code class="directive">ScriptSock</code></a> directive noted below,
- mod_cgid behaves similarly to mod_cgi. <strong>See the
- <code><a href="mod_cgi.html">mod_cgi</a></code> Summary for additional details about
- Apache and CGI.</strong></p>
-
- <p>On certain unix operating systems, forking a process from a
- multi-threaded server is a very expensive operation because the
- new process will replicate all the threads of the parent
- process. In order to avoid incurring this expense on each CGI
- invocation, mod_cgid creates an external daemon that is
- responsible for forking child processes to run CGI scripts. The
- main server communicates with this daemon using a unix domain
- socket.</p>
-
- <p>This module is used by default whenever a multi-threaded MPM
- is selected during the compilation process. At the user level,
- this module is identical in configuration and operation to
- <code><a href="mod_cgi.html">mod_cgi</a></code>. The only exception is the
- additional directive <code>ScriptSock</code> which gives the
- name of the socket to use for communication with the cgi
- daemon.</p>

- <p>This directive sets the name of the socket to use for
- communication with the CGI daemon. The socket will be opened
- using the permissions of the user who starts Apache (usually
- root). To maintain the security of communications with CGI
- scripts, it is important that no other user has permission to
- write in the directory where the socket is located.</p>
