Romulogomes,
Yup you can use it to run a shell script or any other program you wish.
Here you can run a shell script called myscript
<CFSET arguments="#PARAM1#">
<CFEXECUTE
NAME="/usr/local/bin/myscript"
ARGUMENTS=#arguments#
OUTPUTFILE="/var/www/html/mysite/mysite.foo"
TIMEOUT="999">
</CFEXECUTE>
Here you can use it to call GREP
<CFSET arguments="#STRING# #DIRECTORY#">
<CFEXECUTE
NAME="/bin/grep"
ARGUMENTS=#arguments#
OUTPUTFILE="/tmp/grepoutput"
TIMEOUT="10">
</CFEXECUTE>
If the request doesn't have the correct privileges to run that program it
simply returns an error page.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is a good source of info. There is a guy there
Jesse Nolle who knows his onions.

As far as I am aware cfexecute only runs on NT and UNIX platforms - whether
that means Linux I dunno - worth a try I guess - you can use the optional
ARGUMENTS syntax to pass command-line arguments to a program, elements of
the ARGUMENTS array is copied into a corresponding array of exec() arguments
on UNIX.
Dunno if this helps...
