Question about CGI scripts

Name: Anonymous 2010-12-14 6:33

Is it possible to have a cgi script run arbitrary commands? For example have the script run "aumix -v+5" to increase the volume on the machine it's running on.

The idea is to have a web page on a web sever running on my linux box that I can use to control the volume, play/pause music, etc. Then I could use my phone to navigate to that page and sort of use it as a remote for the PC. The phone doesn't have wifi so I can't just use ssh to log into my comp and do it that way.

The problem is that html is non-portable. GNU autoconf addresses these portability concerns in an elegant manner, and permits you to focus on the real programming problems instead of wasting your time porting your code to new and different platforms.
