cannot run python on apache 1.3.17

On apache 1.3.17, I can run perl cgi and shell script cgi with no problem. But, I cannot run python cgi. It gives me this Internal Server error.

Here is the script. I chmod +x test.py

#!/usr/bin/python
print "Content-Type: text/plain\n\n"

print "Hello, Python!" # print a test string

-----------------------
Is there an Apache config error?

Thank you, Cindy

When looking into the apache error log, I see these errors:

ld.so.1: /usr/local/bin/python: fatal: libnet.so: open failed: No such file or directory
