Subject: Re: Errors with a Ruby CGI script

Oh, I see.
Check the permissions on digest/md5.so.  Perhaps it's not readable by 
"other" (though it should be).

As for whether it'll be detrimental to comment out "require 'digest/md5'", 
I honestly don't know.  I'm sure the line is there for a reason, so "weird 
things" might happen when it's commented out.  It'd be better if someone 
more familiar with Ruby's CGI could tell us exactly what features actually 
use MD5.

Daniel.
