What exactly do you mean by Java cgi program? There are three
interpretation I can think of
1) Jigsaw resources. To learn how to use those, read the documentation
that came with Jigsaw. If you can't get jigsaw running, it should be
somewhere under WWW/User/ tree and you can read it from the disk directly.
2) Jeeves servlets. Do 1) first and you will find section on how to use
servlets. You would need old version of Jeeves though as well.
3) Java programs that are started by cgi wrapper or fastCGI. While you can
setup Jigsaw to run CGI to run Java, I would consider that a waste of
time, effort and Jigsaw power. Also, I have no idea how to set that up.

If you are just starting with web servers/servlets/etc, I would advice to
choose option 1 and read all the documents available as well as look
through simple source code files. (eg. DebugFilter, etc)

 Hope it helps,
        Alex.
