Also, when you connect to a web server, doesn't it pass along this information also?
Been awhile since I've worked with web servers (I'm still a perl noob btw). Maybe connect with a perl module to the server (localhost) then parse that info.
Just a thought

Thank you Gaffney and Jones for your input.
I may have to parse external program output I suppose. I was hoping there would be a more built in or Modular way to get it. Part of the problem is foo.pl can be run simultaneously by 2 different users so I'm not sure how I'd be able to make foo.pl tell which ps it belongs to.
I suppose I can use the process Id in $$ in the parseing of ps output.
I was hoping for a builtin variable or module that would tell me :)
Any other ways besides parsing external program output?
TIA
