[MacPerl] Newby with a complex problem

[BJ Peterson <bj.peterson@m.cues.k12.ut.us>]

Hi,

I'm new to the list and new to MacPerl (or Perl all together).

I have come across a problem that I can't figure out.  I currently
administer a Unix Box for Web Services and all my CGI's are done in Perl.
One of the things I have to do is run a remote shell (not available in
MacPerl due to the lack of a command line).  Below is one of the commands I
need to run from within my Perl CGI's.

print (qx!echo
"$ENV{QUERY_STRING}&HTTP_COOKIE=$ENV{HTTP_COOKIE}&REMOTE_HOST=$ENV{REMOTE_HOST}&
$var" | remsh xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -l test ./reserve > /tmp/test.$$!);

NOTE:  Numbers removed for security reasons...

My question is this.  Is there anyway this can be done in MacPerl (via
Sockets or something), and if so, can anyone give some tips or ideas on how
to do it?
