I've untarred Webware into my cgi-bin directory. I'm able to run long-running processess. I tried it with an infinite loop python script. No-one kills it. But I don't want to start it this way because I'll never know when the provider may reboot his machine and there goes my appserver. > If you manage to install Webware from FTP or SCP access only, you can > always use popen() from within a servlet to execute any command as if you > were in a shell.

If a client opens my site and AppServer isn't running, WebKit.cgi should start it. i.e I want WebKit.cgi to start up the appserver if it's not running already from just a client request and without my intervention. If it's already running it should connect to it normally. Which user will AppServer run as in this case, if it's possible? I'll need to give all users write access to the Webware install directory. Will this create security problems? Best Regards, Aditya Gilra. _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
