Need path

Hi all,

I need to know how to use a script located on a different server.

I have one account on a Unix server and another on a Windows NT. Because I have not been successful installing my scripts on the NT, I would like to house them all on the Unix.

My Unix account is located at http://www.primenet.com/~mrae

My NT account is located at http://www.BusinessDesignSite.com

What is the path to put a counter on the Nt site. (the counter script is located on the Unix)

Does this make sense?

Also, what is the Unix shell command to find out what version of Perl your server uses?

Thanks,
MichelleB.

I'm not sure I entirely understand what you need with the counter script. You have it installed on one server (the UNIX server) but want to use it from your Windows NT server?

If that is the case, then you would reference the counter on the Windows NT server via the full URL to the location of the script on the UNIX server. You wouldn't be using any path information here Confused

As for getting the vesion of Perl, you should use:
perl -v'

Thank you Jonathan for responding so quickly. I will try your suggestion. I am very new to using scprits; cut and paste, so far. All help is greatly appreciated.
