Thanks again Danny, Perl was the first thing I tinkered with back in the 90's but haven't messed with it for years.
Looking over what you sent, I get about 90% of what's going on there. With a little searching and brushing up on my Perl, I think I will be able to make this work. This is a good solution and, if I can get this to work, I won't even need the AGI. I can basically just hit what I need using CURL within the Perl script (I think). All the AGI was going to do for me is hit a URL with some parameters out on the Internet. So, pretty sure I can do all that within the Perl Script and leave AGI out of it completely. --Todd On Tue, Apr 10, 2012 at 4:02 PM, Danny Nicholas <[email protected]> wrote: > Were this my task, I would do a PERL/C daemon to run the AGI.
