Thanks for replying.. I can put perl on the Win 2000 desktops.. So I could, I suppose, use tk.pm and Telnet.pm (found on cpan)... So from this point I think I can go forward..
>>> Lance <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 02/12/03 03:42AM >>> My first thought is to make a little cgi script, but you don't have a webserver... What O/S is on the desktops? More importantly, what scripting or programming language do they have in common? You can make a script or program in you choice of language. As long as it supports running other languages and can recieve the output from them. "Steve Lobach" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... I've been doing some work on AIX and using grep to find data in files, but I frequently run into situations where the lines are much longer than 2k characters. I found a nice tool using Perl to do this.. Now I would like to beef up this script a little bit.. How can I run that Perl script remotely without using Telnet? Or maybe hiding it by giving the end user a GUI? These are my requirements.. 1. take a search string from enduser 2. log into Unix 3. execute Perl script 4. return positive/negative result to user.. I don't have a web server for this.. I can install Perl on end user desktops, but not preferred.
