Maybe it would help if we knew why you wanted to do this. I'm not sure I get the
whole picture of what you are trying to do. You can get system (and user) environment
variables via a perl program using a module like Win32::AdminMisc or even through the
registry, but that would require that the process running the web page have admin
rights on the remote machine, and there are some definite security issues there.

Subject: RE: Client system variables
Let me describe you the whole scenario. There are some WinNT 4.0
workstations, each of those has some system variables (what do you mean
asking what are system variables? Executing 'set' command in command prompt
you can get all the system variables for the machine).
Well, the task is to get those variables via web pages (yes, served from
server on the intranet). I'm not sure, that it is possible using Perl, but
any script in any language (VBScript, JavaScript) will do for me.
Thank you!
