External Commands

[Arion23]

I've written a number of perl scripts that make use of HTMLDOC (

http://www.easysw.com/htmldoc)

to dynamically produce PDFs, and work fine on Apache. However I need to port these to IIS (both 4 and 5 on NT/2000 servers).

The perl command is:
system('echo "'.$resultPage.'" | htmldoc --quiet --webpage -t pdf - ');

Under IIS, this results in the message:
'htmldoc' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Is there a method of configuring IIS so that such external programs can be executed?

I would guess you've found your answer by now, but if not...
