Trying to find a way to restart a remote server that only gives scp access and apache is running too.
Not unless the service that will be executing the script, Apache in this
case, has super user access, and it probably (shouldn't, and I hope for
you sake) doesn't. There are ways around this but this seems like a bad
way to go. You have SCP but not SSH access?
A system command from a call to Asterisk seems like a good way to go,
and is on topic for this list :)
