It is the server's responsibility to set up two pipes and then assign | them to the spawned process's STDIN and STDOUT handles. The server then | reads the socket data and pushes it down the STDIN pipe, and then reads data | from the STDOUT pipe and returns it to the web browser. What you failed to tell me is that the PC that is running the CGI script, must be a server (or at least running some server software like Microsoft Personal Web Server for 9x, or IIS5 on XP Pro). For me on XP Pro, I had to get the XP CD to install IIS, and this was the hard bit. Now I am up and running with my dkproces.exe file.
