[Memphis.pm] redirecting a localhost web server through cgi

[Alaric Ravenhall]

I have an interesting need:
Because of a firewall situation, I need to develop a cgi perl script that 
will allow me to access it via a web browser and have the perl send the 
requests via localhost to a local web server.

BROWSER ---> PERL MAGIC CGI ----> WEBSERVER
BROWSER <--- PERL MAGIC CGI <---- WEBSERVER

This will allow the webserver to return data on whatever port you queried 
from (i.e. port 80) inside your firewall. It sucks haveing a webserver on a 
non-standard port, but oh, well.

Thanks in advance,
Nathan Waddell
