Thanks Jamis.
Unfortunately I can't do that. User output is essential. I'm
experimenting with issuing the command using su. By doing something
like:
echo 'MyPassWord' | su - deployer -c 'cd project; cap deploy;'
I realize there are security issues there, but the server has only a
few users. And I'd make it so only apache could read that script
file. Also, the file is NOT in the web root. Bad idea?
Any other ideas? :-)
