Re: [cgiwrap-users] forking not allowed?

Have you tried something like this

#!/usr/bin/perl
$uptime = `uptime`;
print "Content-type: text/plain\n\n";
print "$uptime";

Note the back-quotes around the shell-escaped command (not single quotes)
(This is not really a cgiwrap question; it is a perl question.)
