You should be able to capture the output of http://php.net/exec or http://php.net/popen and do whatever you want with it. fsockopen will, however, almost certainly be faster/better if you have to do a lot of these. I think telnet is port 22, usually... Or maybe 23. SSH is the other one of those, and I always forget. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
