Products: Gossamer Links: Pre Sales: spider plug-in: Edit Log

Here is the list of edits for this post
spider plug-in
Well I have this questiong about Spider Plug-in:

In the spider's domumentation it is said:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Running the Spider


The spider script, "spider.pl", cannot be run from the web. The script must run from a telnet shell or as part of a cron job. After you have placed a links into the Spider's queue, run the script to start the system.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, I don't have telnet shell access, but I would like to refer to following section of Fileman's documentation and ask if it would be possible to use it's "Command" feature to run spider.pl:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fileman -> System Commands


FileMan 2 lets you run system commands, providing a virtual shell account. Great for systems that don't provide any shell access (disabled in demo)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

??????????????

Thank you in ahead for any answers :-)
