Please, don't do what that link says. Why does everybody do so difficult
when then want to use fcgi? It's a common, widely used technology. Even
by php.

For example, when you are on fedora, just do 'yum install mod_fpcgid'
and it'll work.

So look up how to install fastcgi support on your OS, and do that. Or if
you use Apache, look in the Apache documentation. Or the fastcgi
documentation.
