I am interfacing my computer to a simple circuit through the printer port. To do this I coded a C program to interface with the circuit. What I want is to control remotely (through the internet). So I need to run a cgi script through the webserver to execute the C program that I interfaced with my circuit. Can you guys give me a sample script that will execute a C program.

Are you able to run a C script via Telnet or SSH? If so, use the `` option...

For example;


#!/usr/bin/perl

`command to run that would normally be done in telnet`;

print "Content-type: text/html \n\n";
print "done";

Just guessing..as I've never had to run a C program over the Net before
