I have a client who has an Apache server and we need to run ASP pages on the server. What are the alternatives for adding ASP compatibility to the server? I know ChiliSoft is one. Are there others? Possibly any that don't cost anything?

There's Apache::ASP; I've not tried it, tho: [apache-asp.org ]. Note that mod_perl is *extremely* powerful, but can be a bit of a resource hog. If you're going to be serving a lot of content that's *not* asp off this host, one common practice is to run two Apache instances; one heavy-weight (mod_perl-enabled) and one lightweight (no mod_perl), and then proxy requests for .asp pages back to the mod_perl instance.
Of course, you could always proxy back to an IIS server as well, in a pinch...
