CGI is not a very good way of doing this - although I did implement a *very* basic version that is on the Python Cookbook. The python interpreter closes after executing a CGI... You could setup a long running process on teh server that communicates with the CGI every time it opens. I don't use Lunix systems myself... so I don't know how to tell the client shell to communicate via the CGI Regards, Fuzzy > -- > - Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
