 To install Trac as a CGI script, you need to make the `trac.cgi` executable as a CGI by your web server.

 If you're using [http://httpd.apache.org/ Apache HTTPD], there are a couple ways to do that:
 
  1. Use a `ScriptAlias` to map a URL to the `trac.cgi` script
- 2. Copy the `trac.cgi` file into the directory for CGI executables used by your web server (commonly named `cgi-bin`). You can also create a symbolic link, but in that case make sure that the `FollowSymLinks` option is enabled for the `cgi-bin` directory.

A word of warning, copying the file directly from the repository onto a windows server 2003 machine created difficulties. Rather create a new text file and cut and copy the text into the newly created file. You can also create a symbolic link, but in that case make sure that the `FollowSymLinks` option is enabled for the `cgi-bin` directory.
 
 The first option is recommended as it also allows you to map the CGI to a friendly URL.
