in my project i have to nmap an ip give and in this code

cmd = "nmap -O " + myip + "> /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/test/temp/tmp.txt"
os.system(cmd)

i scan for the os on the remote system.

Iran this code in python it is working but when i run this in mod_python
through apache it is not showing any errors but not giving the correct
result.

cmd = "nmap -sP " + myip + "> /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/test/temp/tmp.txt"
os.system(cmd)

which is nothing but a ping scan of the ip
It is working properly in mod_python also.
but i want to detect the os .
