>> I'm moving from Windows 2000 (IIS 5) to Windows Server 2003 (IIS6). I'm unable to capture the output of a program using backticks in a CGI script.
I've had weird issues using backticks on windows in general (in the past). As a habit, I've since used system() instead and I've had no problems with it. This could be a permissions issue as Peter said. You may also want to try this... open (P1, "ping $host 2>&1|") || die "Cannot start ping\n"; @ping1 = <P1>; close(P1); - Chris _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list Perl-Win32-Users@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
