Python: debugging system calls

[Bradley Gabe <withanar(at)stanwinston.com>]

I'm wondering if this is possible... I need to run os.system() calls
through python, and I need to be able to see the line Python echos as a
result.

So for example, if I want to run the command: whoami, I need to get the
string value that is echoed. The os.system() method itself just returns
a number describing the status of the command.

The purpose of this is to help in debugging Apache running mod python,
which is doing strange things regarding permissions.

Any help or advice appreciated!
