I need to make CGI script for changing user password throught web
browser. I have one, but doesn't work:
I'm using FreeBSD 4.6 & Apache 1.3.24
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

$suexec = "/usr/bin/su";
print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n";

Hi Pavel,
I know that perl mostly doesn't like the sticky-bits on files such as :
-r-sr-xr-x 1 root bin 24576 Aug 6 1998 /usr/bin/su
He just doesn't executes them.
Personaly I haven't found a solution for this. I know a collegue of mine has written
a C-programm around it.

Hi everybody
I've got text file on the local machine and Apache too.
What I don't know is how can I display this file like html file using cgi.
The file looks like:
USER PID PPID %CPUTIME COMMAND
user 26794 26002 0.00:00
user 4687 4685 0.00:00 -ksh
Hi,
I'm using a session for my login system. So the session will keep the
user's username and password. My question is if we able to retrieve the
session back (for another page), is it necessary to check the username and password
against
the database ?

Hi,
Multiple ways of doing this :
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
my $logfile = "...";
open(FH, "<$file");
my @contents = ;
close ();
print " @contents ";
# -
or
print "USERPIDPPID .. ";
foreach $line(@contents) {
##
$line =~ s/\s+//g;
print " $line ";
I usually use random numbers, and keys for things like this, for
example:
I have a users table in a database set up like this:
id integer auto increment primary key
usernamevarchar(32)
passwordvarchar(32)
rand_keyfloat

I think that you want too much for Perl editing under Window$, but try
Ultra Edit or JEdit. I recommend JEdit, it's probably best editor
written in Java and it's designed for developers.

the simple solution to this problem is called

Assuming you are on UNIX, run your script suid. For example, if your script
was called auth.cgi, here is what you would do:
1st, at the command line:
chmod 4711 auth.cgi
2nd, change your shebang line in your script to include the -U (run as user)
flag:
#!/usr/bin/perl -U

definitely go with emacs and use "perl-mode" then "font-lock-mode" if you
want syntax highlighting.

By all means, Homesite.
Ok, so it actually cost a few dollars, but this thing does great things for you.
- It color codes html, perl, sql, css and so on.
- save your files as windows, unix or mac format.
- upon opening files, auto discover which format and display correctly
- open multiple fil
emacs is a good one. I also like TextPad (www.textpad.com).
