Hi Chaitanya,

I'm de-CCing the PHP lists because I may not have permissions to post to them.

First of all, you can write a small web-service (such as a Perl CGI-or-
equivalent script or a PHP script) that will in turn run the Perl app you've 
written (is it a command-line app?) locally. See:

http://perl-begin.org/uses/web/

One problem may be that the host's web-service won't have the necessary 
operating system privileges to run your Perl application under your login 
user.

Secondly, note that you can use Perl (or a different language) to automate a 
login to the server (using such protocols as SSH or Telnet) and automatically 
run your app there. This may prove to be a better idea than setting up a web-
service because there's one less point of failure.
