PWS for 98 does not. You're stuck editing the registry. Not only that, but I've seen cases where if you screw up the scriptmap in the registry, you actually have to uninstall/reinstall PWS to get bogus info cleared out of the Metabase (the PWS/IIS settings cache).

I don't know if there's a PWS for 2000. Anyone?

First off, thank you so much for your patience and wisdom, dws, you've solved my problem.

I uninstalled PWS (Win98) and reinstalled. Before rebooting post-installation, I went in and added it to the Script Map with the -T like it should be. After reboot, I tried my make taint puke script and it puked!!! :)

So, for shits and giggles, I uninstalled PWS again, reinstalled and instead of adding perl to the script map with -T, I added it without -T (like so: c:\perl\bin\perl.exe %s %s). After reboot, I modified the entries to include the -T. Rebooted again, and when I tried the script, I got the "Too late for -T" message. Which, was my original problem.

In the end, after fixing then breaking PWS again, I guess the problem was that when setting up PWS for Perl, I didn't think ahead and put the -T where necessary (please, no flames, I was monk-less when I set this up). I'm also an idiot for not test-casing this more simply because if I had mapped .cgit instead of modifying .cgi I most likely would have seen this behavior sooner.

And for the record, now that the problem has been solved, I can safely remove -T from the #! line - it still taint checks.

Update: Due to several complaints, removed signature

There isn't PWS for Windows 2000, instead one would install IIS 5.0 - which is included with Windows 2000 Professional.
