Actually, you bring up a good point. :)

But, if he's stuck with Win2k on a CMB VIC20 he might want to consider
ditching IIS5 and going with something really small, like Xitami. He can run
the exec() through PHP as suggested with minimal memory/processor usage.

I don't even want to consider the security aspects of a Win2K/IIS5 install
on a nuclear installation, though! :0
