The best way to debug cgi is to tail the server log when you don't get
commandline output. This will give you a clue to what is happening.. shoulld be
something like /var/log/apache or something like that...

I was wondering, how could I disable all keyboard/mouse input for the

Could this be accomplished somehow through sys

curses means it will work for any console supporting color and curses.

I'm trying to get some pretty colored output for a Linux console / terminal
window. Google searches only reveal the curses module to colorize output.
Is there a simpler way? Curses seems to be FAR too powerful for what it is I

All,
I'm having some trouble using the Python logging module. Here's the
snippet of code that's causing problems:
# setting up logging using Python's logging module
LOGFILE = "/home/james/log"
logging.basicConfig( level=logging.DEBUG,
format='%
I've used something like this successfully in the past:
import commands
if commands.getoutput( "whoami" ) != "root":
sys.exit( "Must be root!" )
Hope this helps.

Why not just use os.geteuid() ?

if os.geteuid() != 0:

Recall str[-1] is the last character
str[0] is the first...
Try using a while loop.
Or maybe two?
