/*
** generic wrapper that will take info from a environment 
** variable, and pass it to two commands.
**
** 10-17-96 : Hal Schechner
** 12-14-96 : John Viega -- changed to work on 1 command, 
**                          take a list of valid commands,
**                          just pass on argv, and use execvp()
**                          Also threw in some useful feedback for when there's
**                          a failure, mainly for future debugging.
**
** 03-31-98 : John Viega -- Consolidated all CGI wrappers into 1,
**                          removed checking the command name, (it was
**                          not real security anyway...) and changed it to use
**                          syslog on error.  This definitely doesn't have any of
**                          Hal's code left ;-)
**
