modify src/config.py:
SERVER_ROOT: http://192.168.1.200/bscw

access problems bscw
as root: chmod a+w /usr/local/groupware
~/bscw-4.0.6$python setup /usr/local/groupware/bscw
again add apache.conf
create htpasswd

http://bscw.gmd.de/faq/inst20.html
Why do I get a Python trace with "RuntimeError: cgi/bscw.cgi: No setgid"?

got an account on http://bscw.gmd.de/bscw/bscw.cgi

cd <bscw-path>
% cc -o wrapper wrapper.c
as bscw user (timop): % ./bsadmin chkconfig
this brought some error messages about group id and mode
as root: chgrp 509 cgi/bscw.cgi
as root: chmod 06755 cgi/bscw.cgi
as bscw user (timop): % ./bsadmin chkconfig

stop server: <bscw-path>/start_servers -k
start server: <bscw-path>/start_servers

configure garbage collection!
