Print CD and changes to txt file?

[revanjedi1988]

Hello all, I'm working on a honeypot with a server/client TCP and I've run into a problem processing the CD command. When I run the program to test my CD function, parameter char command[ 2048 ] will be "cd .. " to move up 1 level in the directory, but when I call the system to create a txt file from which to save the contents I still get the directory I began with and not the new directory.

If it's not enough code to decipher let me know, don't want to crowd the thread.

Thanks for any help.

char CD(int newsockfd, char command[ 2048 ]) 
{
	char buff[1000];
	system( strcat( command, " > cd.txt") );
	FILE *file = fopen("cd.txt", "r");//file variable; 

	while(fgets(buff, 1000, file) != NULL)
	{
		send(newsockfd, buff, 1000, 0);				
	}

	fclose(file);  // close the file 
	send(newsockfd, "\n", 1000, 0);
	send(newsockfd, "EOF", 1000, 0);
	return buff[1000];
}
