> Hi!
>
> Im working on project for managing user accounts (checking their

> by WWW.
> * How can this be done with servlets - I mean how to execute shell
> programs like finger, quota for a specific user (admin, regular
> user) to gather all this information? Does a servlet recognize a
> specific user (his rights)? What kind of shell programs can be
> executed? And which of them cannot?
> * Where can I find information on how to deal with files by means
> of servlets?
> * My last question is simple - if I create a web page that consist
> of frames, is it possible to make a link to a frame with a servlet
> URL?
>
> Thanks in advance for your advices:)
