[qmailadmin-devel] qmailadmin's CGI quirks

[Kacper W. <ka...@on...>]

Hi folks,
I'm trying to set up qmailadmin on nginx,
or any lightweight web server for that matter.

I'm running qmailadmin 1.2.12, and although I always have to log in
twice for some reason, I can get in to the main menu page.

Trouble is, qmailadmin is not a typical CGI program in that it
generates URLs of the form

http://domain.com/cgi-bin/qmailadmin/com/showusers?user=postmaster&dom=domain.com&time=1220315583

- note the /com/ part which I don't know how to map up to a query
string qmailadmin understands, though I'm guessing apache does some
magic to get this right.
normal cgi servers think /com/showusers is a file in a subfolder of qmailadmin/

What is qmailadmin doing with the query string?
How do I get some basic debug messages or logging going to see what
qmailadmin is doing?

Thanks,
 -Kacper
