Monks, I've written some scripts in Net::Appliance::Session. These scripts log into cisco switch, do something, then report back something to standard output. This is on a linux box. I have a front end windows .Net 3.5 web server. With a simple webpage with a field and a button. I want the user to input a mac address in the field, push the button, and the remote script launches reporting back to the user the switch port the mac address is on. The point is, .Net sends a variable to the linux box to pass to the script and the script sends back to the web server output that is displayed. I've no real idea where to start. The web server does not have Perl on it, and I believe the best I can get installed on it is simple perl 4 executable. maybe a manual module or two, but not Active State Perl. Any help would be greatly apppreciated of where to start. Regards, Marcus
