No, that is not the proble, because:
1. This was a simpler example, in fact I tried to use
open (FILE, "/usr/local/qmailanalog/bin/zsenders \</var/log/qmail/qmail.log |") or die;
(Sorry for this change, the version with cat was written quickly just to be
sure, that qmailanalog is not the problem)
2. "/usr/local/qmailanalog/bin/zsenders \</var/log/qmail/qmail.log |"
was executed without problems from within php3 script....
Once more, wat is happening with following example:
open(FILE,"/bin/cat \</etc/passwd |") or die;
while (\<FILE>) {
print OUT $_;
}
causes browser to wait indefinitly long for reply.
Any more ideas?
