i think you just need to modify your httpd.conf file.
i have the following perl specific entries:
AddHandler cgi-script .pl
Action cgi-script "c:/software/development/active perl/bin/perl.exe"
if you want to use a special directory you must setup this too
i think the perl scripts have to contain a first line like this:
#!c:/software/development/active perl/bin/perl.exe
but i'm not sure, normally i work with linux
