En este tutorial se muestra cómo se pueden servir scripts CGI (scripts de Perl) con nginx en Debian Squeeze / Ubuntu 11.04. Porque nginx en sí misma no sirve CGI, hay varias maneras de trabajar con ello. Voy a exponer tres soluciones: la primera es peticiones de proxy para scripts CGI para Thttpd, un pequeño servidor web que soporte CGI, mientras que la segunda solución y la tercera son muy similares -tanto el uso de una envoltura CGI para servir los scripts CGI.
