The $PATH_INFO and $SCRIPT_NAME variables appear to not be set. I can get access to it by using $HTTP_SERVER_VARS["PATH_INFO"] or $HTTP_SERVER_VARS["SCRIPT_NAME"].

I am using Apache 2.0.36 (I tried to use 2.0.39 but PHP would not compile, which is another issue). I have used this setup before on Linux 2.4 and it worked fine..

Please let me know what other information I can provide.

In PHP 4.2.0, the 'register_globals' setting default changed to
be off. See http://www.php.net/release_4_2_0.php for more info.
We are sorry about the inconvenience, but this change was a necessary
part of our efforts to make PHP scripting more secure and portable.

I am terribly sorry.. now I am confused as to why it worked with a snapshot of 4.2.1 (http://www.php.net/~derick/php-4.2.1RC2.tar.bz2).

But anyways.. thanks for clearing that up!!
Thanks for all the hard work of the PHP developers.. you do a great job!

Q: "... why it worked with a snapshot of 4.2.1 ..."

I'm guessing an old version of php.ini was being used as php.ini-dist in that snapshot does have register_globals = off.
