All, I have a program that I am writing that will be shared amongst multiple users. This program sits in the background as a daemon and 'does' things (consider it a black box). I want users to be able to SSH into the Linux box that is running the code and then do something like this:
$ program.py addMe <username> <var2> In other words, a user will 'pass' something (an argument, for a lack of better words) into the program that is *already* running, and the program will modify its behavior based on that command. I guess this is equivalent to saying "/etc/init.d/httpd restart", although I imagine the init script is actually telling the program to stop and restart. Thoughts on how to go about doing this, or if it's at all possible? :) Thanks! -j _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
