[mod-security-users] Arguments in the exec action?

[ffolkes <ff...@ff...>]

Hello-

Is there a way to put arguments in the exec action? For example:

"exec:/path/to -a=123"

I tried but it appeared to never run the command at all.

Thanks.

   Correct. At the moment the whole thing is treated as the
   path to the script. It would help if you could explain why
   you need this feature.

What I had initially done was make a PHP script to add offending IPs to
APF, or optionally just notify me. Thus the use of flags, to tell it if
I wanted it to run in notifyonly mode or not. I've since gotten around
this problem by just copying the script and hardcoding the options.
