Hello friends ,

I have a python script , called sydi-linux , this script will give a complete details about the server from A to Z . I am not at all good at python scripting . I need some one who can help me with this scrpit

Actually this script runs well on Gentoo linux , but i need to run them on Redhat AS 4 , so please help me to run on them .

There are few things things that has to be changed i.e commands or syntax to make it run in Redhat AS 4

Here is the script :
