perl? a web based app to restart a game server

i just bought a web server that runs on linux and decided to run a Counterstrike game server off of it, however if i wanna update the server and it needs to be restarted, i have to login to SSH and type a load of stuff which i dont even know what any of it means, so could someone give me some advice/help on creating a web page that restarts/quits/starts the server

i've been told it can be done using perl ... but do i know anything bout perl? ... NO

any help will be appreciated greatly

also some of the main things that the server is running are here

Apache
Proftpd
Bind
SSH
Real Server
ShoutCast Server
Half-Life: Counter-Strike Server

Hi,

I am creating a new filesharing client called Syfonic Music Community.

This client will be much larger that Napster, Kazaa etc.

It also is going to be written in the Visual Basic 6 language.
I am looking for Visual Basic programmers to help me with this client, so if you are in any way interested in helping me with this client please mailto [email protected]
