Can Why's that? Can't you just run strace -f -e open -o /tmp/mylog texexec ... instead of plain texexec? Sure, multiple runs will mean you only ever get to see the last log, but on a test system that should be exactly the one you are looking for. Oh, and I'll second Patrick's advice: Before letting unknown users run arbitrary programs on your machine (and TeX code provided by the user, even if it is just their names to be filled into some template, *does* qualify as =93arbitrary programs=94), make bloody sure those programs hav= e no chance of ruining your server. Double-check the validity of all inputs, check if you can use a chroot =93jail=94 and use the most paranoi= d TeX settings with which your setup/code still works. regards, Christopher
