Depends on what "CGI is enabled" means.

Usually, web servers are not set to just handle cgi scripts from  
anywhere, but only from specific file system locations.  Otherwise, an  
an anonymous upload could be executed as CGI and wreak havoc.

And "it should work anyway, should it not" is already answered by  
"they're having trouble getting my scripts to work."
