Hi
I'm currently into converting a perl linux app into a .Net windows service.
The application monitors our syslog log files to capture i.p adress changes
on some of our routers having dynamic i.p. In the syslog logfile i capture
the new IP adress of the router. I then need to telnet to that i.p adress
and fetch the hostname. A list of these routers will be presented on a
webpage.
I've created the application in vb.net and most parts of it is working fine
except for the telnet module. I've created a TCPClient class that takes care
of this. However with my limited .Net experience this is gonna take some
time to implement the Telnet protocol to handle all sorts of stuff :)
However time is limited and i need to get this app up and running. I have a
perlscript doing this for me returning the routerconfig to stdout (the dos
window). I've tried to do a:
Shell(Me.FileTo Execute, AppWinStyle.Hid e, True, 3000) where Me.FiletoExecut e
= C:\Perl\bin\Per l.exe C:\files\syslog \telnet.pl >
C:\files\syslog \SmallOffice93C onfig.txt
however the shell doesn't like piping to a file and outputs this to the
command window. Is there a way i can fetch the data from the command window,
or a way to pipe the data to a file ? Or is it possible to embed a
perlscript directly into .net ?
I use the Perl ppm module Net-Telnet-Cisco to send my telnet command.
Help is appreciated
Best Regards

You might want to try calling the EzPerl API if your using ActiveState
Perl...
I played with this a bit a long time ago with VB5/6, so I don't remember
all of the details. But, it maybe worth a try. Also, you could buy a
telnet component...

Oh, yeah... I thought I better mention - ActiveState creates a .NET
version of Perl. Visual Perl. That would let you convert most of your
Perl code directly to .NET :)

What is the difference between Perl (CGI) and PHP (Apache module)? I thought both used servers to direct the
user to the appropiate Perl or PHP program in order to execute the program to interpret the user's Perl or PHP script
respectively.

I'm trying to execute a PERL script on the web server when the user presses

solution for me seemed to be to use the 'Shell()'-command .
This didn't work: Either I get an "File not found" error, or I get no error
at all, but the PERL script isn't executed anyway. The strange thing is that
I managed to execute a .bat file for example. Why the hell...

Introduction
Many websites have a form or a link you can use to download a file. You click a form button or click on a link and after a moment or two a file download dialog box pops-up in your web browser and prompts you for some instructions, such as “open” or “save“. I’m going to show you how to do that using a perl script.
