Anyone know a way to dump the page to a file? I've tried this ?so = far with little success: #!/bin/sh . /usr/lib/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitcgi.cfg HOST=3D$1 SERVICE=3Dtrends env REQUEST_URI=3D/hobbit-cgi/bb-hostsvc.sh?HOST=3D${HOST}\&SERVICE=3D$SERVICE SCRIPT_NAME=3D/hobbit-cgi/bb-hostsvc.sh QUERY_STRING=3DHOST=3D${HOST}\&SERVICE=3D$SERVICE REQUEST_METHOD=3DGET /usr/lib/hobbit/server/bin/hobbitsvc.cgi $CGI_SVC_OPTS --debug Then I run sh test.sh server?.name The result is: Content-type: text/html Invalid request Invalid request It acts as though it didn't find a host name to query. Any other suggestions would be very helpful!

But what you've tried should work. In fact I have an old Hobbit server that I tested your script on, and got the results as you would want. However, I had to join the lines together from "env" to the end, all as one long line, to get it to work.

So you *would* need to have from "env" to the end as a single line. Or export the things not on the env line: export HOST SERVICE REQUEST_URI SCRIPT_NAME QUERY_STRING= REQUEST_METHOD /usr/lib/hobbit/server/bin/hobbitsvc.cgi $CGI_SVC_OPTS --debug Or something like that?
