    Everything looks normal. I'm not terribly familiar with
    the IIS interface so I haven't looked at the logs (not
    really sure where to find those yet). I'll dig around a
    bit but for the most part the HTML output is as expected
    except the parts that are missing that should be command
    line output trapped by Perl variables. In those cases,
    the variables are null so its as if the system calls
    weren't executed at all..
