in thread About server information
Well, that's tough :-). No need to shame, we all started once.
If that's your Redhat System, you may find the webserver Apache installed somewhere (maybe in /usr/local/apache, maybe elsewhere). CGI provides an interface for that webserver to run a script and output its result. Apache is configured via a file named httpd.conf. Within this file a directory needs to be configured as (example):
<Directory "/usr/local/apache/cgi-bin"> AllowOverride AuthConfig Order allow,deny Allow from all Options +ExecCGI ### this is the relevant piece </Directory> ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/"
So you place your script in that cgi-bin directory and open a web browser with the URL:
http://localhost/cgi-bin/your-script.pl
The output will show your server stats.
If that's not your own system, please ask the question "Where can I place my CGI scripts?" to your webmaster. She will help you.
Perhaps someone redhat compatible can give some better directions to start.
