Subs Frequently Asked Questions
This document attempts to provide detailed answers to many frequently asked questions
My web host and my shell host are different machines. How can I
run pirateCheck on the shell host?
If your shell (or telnet) host, is a different machine to the one
where your web server runs, you may find that you are not able to run
pirateCheck successfully. This is because the names of files that Subs
requires will have been entered as valid for the web host. You may
have completely differnt path names to get to those files from your
shell host. If this is the case, you need to override the file names
that config.pl sets up. In pirateCheck, after the call to loadConfig,
you will see a comment on how to override the necessary
paths. Uncomment the lines of code and change them to suit your site.
