This is something very dangerous. And you can't just post to an exe file just like that.
Your best bet would be to map the network drive and invoke it from there. However this might cause other complications with mising dls etc.
Since this is a commercial product oyu might want to ask the company that sells it for their help as well.
all the best

Hi there,
I have to write a PHP code for adding users to an email server. For this I use an application called adduser.exe from Ipswitch IMail Server 8.04. Can anyone tell me how I can use this file with a PHP code?
Please note that the PHP runs on a different machine than the email software. So the function exec and shell_exec won't work. I have to execute the file on the mail server not on the web server.
I tried it like this:
<html> <form action="http:\\server-url\cgi-bin\adduser.exe method="post"> <input type="text" name="firstname"></input> <input>..... </form> </html>
Should this work? If yes, how can I post the values to adduser.exe file? Are there other/better solutions?
TIA Christian
