  34 <h3>Summary</h3>
  35
  36     <p>Except for the optimizations and the additional <code class="directive"><a href="#scriptsock">ScriptSock</a></code> directive noted below,
  37     <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cgid.html">mod_cgid</a></code> behaves similarly to <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cgi.html">mod_cgi</a></code>.
  38     <strong>See the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cgi.html">mod_cgi</a></code> summary for additional details
  39     about Apache and CGI.</strong></p>
  40
  41     <p>On certain unix operating systems, forking a process from a
  42     multi-threaded server is a very expensive operation because the
  43     new process will replicate all the threads of the parent
  44     process. In order to avoid incurring this expense on each CGI
  45     invocation, <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cgid.html">mod_cgid</a></code> creates an external daemon that is
  46     responsible for forking child processes to run CGI scripts. The
  47     main server communicates with this daemon using a unix domain
  48     socket.</p>
  49
  50     <p>This module is used by default instead of
  51     <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cgi.html">mod_cgi</a></code> whenever a multi-threaded MPM
  52     is selected during the compilation process. At the user level,
  53     this module is identical in configuration and operation to
  54     <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cgi.html">mod_cgi</a></code>. The only exception is the
  55     additional directive <code>ScriptSock</code> which gives the
  56     name of the socket to use for communication with the cgi
  57     daemon.</p>

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