 -------------
 The main software can act as a CGI behind a webserver and it's the only
 "friendly" interface provided in GNU/Linux version (Windows version has a
-GUI).  It still can be used as such, but you'll have to copy/move the binary
-to the proper place yourself. This package only provides it as a DICOM server
+GUI). For the browser-embedded viewer part it requires an ActiveX-enabled
+browser and ships with code I can't really understand, so I've left the CGI
+packaging as a wishlist item. This package only provides it as a DICOM server
 out-of-the-box.
 
-I recommend against running it as a CGI interface since it is not very
-secure. If anytime in the future I (or upstream) am able to patch the
-obvious vulnerabilities, I will prepare the package to act as a CGI interface
-as well, but that is just not the case righ now.
+The dgate binary shipped with this package can still be used as CGI, but
+you'll have to copy/move the binary to the proper place yourself. If you have
+a CGI-capable webserver installed on the same machine as ConQuest, it's as
+easy as:
 
+	bash# ln -s /usr/bin/dgate /usr/lib/cgi-bin
 
+Then you can point your browser to:
+
+	http://localhost/cgi-bin/dgate?port=11112&address=127.0.0.1
+
+But please note that the embedded viewer will not work. You'll be able to
+browse studies and view thumbs and individual images, but nothing compared to
+a DICOM viewer.
