"Net Use" command in a browser

[pankajit09]

The below code is not printing the results in a browser as expected :

#!C:/apache2triad/perl/bin/perl.exe use strict; 
use CGI qw(:standard); 
&main(@ARGV);
 sub main 
{
 my $query = CGI->new(); 
print $query->header; 
print `net use`; 
}

The output as shown below is not showing the network drives unlike in the command prompt:

New connections will be remembered. There are no entries in the list.

Question, are you trying to run the command 'net use' in your perl script and have the output sent to a web page?

I don't know that it would actually do it or not. You might have to capture the output and then display it.

The CGI script will run as a different user than a command line script, which might affect what the 'net' command returns.

I changed the user of the Apache Web Server.

Still no result.

I am calling a Perl EXE from a PHP file.

The PHP file is run from the browser.
