IXP usage begins

changing the form to POST works also

http://rod/ixp/viewer.php?address=tcp%21sources.cs.bell-labs.com%21564&path=%2F%2Fcontrib&type=d

doesn't get the full listing

this one works

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.sys-get-temp-dir.php

with that fixed
http://rod/ixp/viewer.php?address=tcp%21sources.cs.bell-labs.com%21564&path=%2F%2Fadm%2Fusers&type=-
worked just fine I think

zzzmookio:zzzmookio::
~llama:~llama::

are the last usernames returned, they look like the EOF


So, in summary, ixp works mostly but needs some bugs working through

$type = `file -i $nam`;

that's not a very friendly nugget to have in your examples

time to upload a file called '`rm -rf ~`' to /contrib/maht

The examples only use idempotent read operations. So I went straight for the jugular and searched the code for wstat.

Lo and behold : /* Still to be implemented: wstat, auth */

Write operations are going to have to wait testing, hopefully I can get Anant to write the tests.
