CGI Program: uptime

Description

The uptime CGI script shows the hostname of the Web server and the output of the uptime command running on that server. There are currently two machines at AcIS that act as Web servers: gutentag and howsit. When you issue a request to www.columbia.edu that request will be assigned at random to one of those machines. The uptime script tells you the hostname and uptime of the machine where it is running. Use it this way
