Dump ps -ef ¦ grep acct on the web

[ubstek]

Hello,

We have apache web server installed on AIX 5.1. We want to dump "ps -ef | grep userid" on a web page.

Can this be done.

Thank you very much in advance

you could use a simple perl script and dump it in cgi-bin. call it with

http://your.server/cgi-bin/script.pl?userid=someuser

-----------------------------------------------------
use CGI qwstandard);

$userid = param("userid"
$title = "Process listing for $userid";
@lines = `/usr/bin/ps -ef | grep $userid`;
print header, start_html($title), h1($title);
foreach(@lines) {
print p($_);
}
print end_html;
-------------------------------------------------------

I would not use this what if I entered that my user id was user01;cat /etc/passwd ?? Tony ... aka chgwhat

When in doubt,,, Power out...

after the '$userid = param("userid"' line you could add:
$userid =~ tr/A-Za-z0-9_-//cd;

or you could use:

@lines = `/usr/bin/ps -ef`;
foreach(@lines) {
if /$userid/ {
print p($_);
}
}

or an equivalent.
