Umm… I was a little premature in saying my @info = `start /b /wait netstat -a -e -n -o -s -r`; works.

I am trying to display the output of netstat on a web page. Whenever the CGI script is hit, a command window briefly flickers into existence then closes as the netstat command completes (and this is with BrowserUK's suggestion in place).

The Fine Print:
Before I get jumped on for the security issues, Apache is set up to only serve this CGI script to the local network (and the network is physically disconnected from the rest of the world).
