Exploring savegrp logs with PERL on NT 1

[jtrellu]

I would like to replace the program "nsrlog" in the savegrp completion notification by a PERL program.
I have already try this script but it doesn't work.

$fic = "test.log";
open (fic, ">$fic"
while (<STDIN>)
{
print fic (&quot;$_&quot;
}

How can i do that ??
Thanks you for yor help

Has anyone figure out why STDIN is not working with Perl scripts in the Networker Notifications. I'm having the same problem trying to get my perl scripts to work in the Networker 7.1.1 for Windows in the Notifications. Any advice is much appreciated.

I know nothing about PERL, but, do you know what character is sent by NW in order to finish the message? (for example, with the mailx command, what is the last character in order to make mailx send the email?)

I would attack in another way:

some_var=true;

while (some_var) {
readline text_var;
if (text_var==finish_char) {
some_var=false;
continue;
}
put(text_var,to_this_file);
}

Hi,

I run Networker 7.1.2 for Windows on a Windows 2000 Server box.

I use this batch file:

The script is ok, so I would check the action in the notification. Have you forgotten the path to the script or something?
