Question by bubbles: What is typically the easiest way to run a perl program (w parameters) on a host’s server (os = linux)?
Thanks! And by “command line” you mean like via telnet?

If the program begin #!/bin/perl then just save it to your user directory, type “chmod +x
For more information your host’s administrators should have documentation available, either on-line or elsewhere. You can try typing “perldoc perlintro” at the command line and see what happens.
If you are accessing the computer by telnet then yes I mean the telnet command line. If you are using OpenSSH then you are probably making your administrator happier though.
Look up PuTTY and see if your server supports it.
