You can write a little script with expect (man expect) and execute it from php with exec().
Other solution its to write a .procmailrc in root that executes the reboot when coming a mail with some text in subject or boyd, so, from php you only need to send a mail. -----Mensaje original----- De: Petre Agenbag [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviado el: jueves, 28 de agosto de 2003 14:48 Para: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Asunto: [PHP] reboot pc with PHP Hi List I've gone through the list for previous questions and the only one that seems to be a solution is to use sudo, however, I cannot seem to get it right. Just as background: I want to make a small "admin" utill for an intranet machine, so the security risks don't bother me at all. Instead of myself having to ssh into the box to reboot or do other "routine" commands, I'd like to make a simple password protected webpage that would have simple links on them like "reboot", "redial" etc, so that someone with some sort of responsibility can do it themselves. Obviously these command(s) need to be run as root, so I looked at the /etc/sudoers and added apache , BUT, in the error log it prompts for a password. I tried to add the option NOPASSWD: ALL to the file, but it says there's a syntax error. What am I missing? Any other ways of doing this? PS, I don't even want to consider Webmin, it's way too complicated, I just want a handfull of predefined commands to be run, nothing else) Thanks -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
