[PHP] NT Auto Authentication?
Anybody figured out how to auto authenticate into a windows server? I need to have some users log through NT Authentication on their browser without typing their username and password. I was wondering if I could use PHP + COM or something like that but I can't find anything. I have found some scripts that validate against NTLM but I have not been able to find a script that would actually validate the browser/session against a NT server. Help! -- Adrian Madrid HyperX Inc.

Re: [PHP] Persistent PHP web application?
I think I understand where you're coming from. I've had a similar
problem and the best solution I've found is eAccelerator (previously
known as Turck MMCache). What EA does is keep the bytecodes PHP compiles
inshared memory so next time you need that script PHP doesn't need to
recompile, EA returns the bytecode from SHM. Now, since PHP scripts are
compiled and saved in SHM all I need to do is /save/ the data that does
not change often but requires a lot of queries as code (an array inside
a script) and include it whenever I need the data. No recompiling, no
need to touch the DB again, pure speed. I hope all this helps you. I
personally don't need extra processes and stuff like that but if you
really want all that you can take a look at phpbeans.
Hope it helps,

Dear list,
My web application (an online classifieds server) requires a set of
fairly large global arrays which contain vital information that most all
the page scripts rely upon for information such as the category list,
which fields belong to each category, and so on. Additionally, there are
a large number of function definitions (more than 13,000 lines of code
in all just for these global definitions).
These global arrays and functions never change between requests.
However, the PHP engine destroys and recreates them every time. After
having spent some serious time doing benchmarking (using Apache Bench),
I have found that this code takes at least 7ms to parse per request on
my dual Xeon 2.4ghz server (Zend Accelerator in use*). This seriously
cuts into my server's peak capacity, reducing it by more than half.
My question is: is there a way to define a global set of variables and
functions ONCE per Apache process, allowing each incoming hit to run a
handler function that runs within a persistent namespace? OR, is it
possible to create some form of shared variable and function namespace
that each script can tap?
AFAIK, mod_python, mod_perl, Java, etc. all allow you to create a
persistent, long-running application with hooks/handlers for individual
Apache requests. I'm surprised I haven't found a similar solution for
PHP.
In fact, according to my work in the past few days, if an application
has a large set of global functions and variable definitions, mod_python
FAR exceeds the performance of mod_php, even though Python code runs
significantly slower than PHP code (because in mod_python you can put
all these definitions in a module that is loaded only once per Apache
process).
The most promising prospect I've come across is FastCGI, which for Perl
and other languages, allows you to run a while loop that sits and
receives incoming requests (e.g. while(FCGI::accept() = 0) {..}).
However, the PHP/FastCGI modality seems to basically compare to mod_php:
every request still creates and destroys the entire application
(although the PHP interpreter itself does persist).
Essentially I want to go beyond a persistent PHP *interpreter* (mod_php,
PHP/FastCGI) and create a persistent PHP *application*... any
suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Regards,
J. Whiting
* - Please note that I am using the Zend Accelerator (on Redhat
Enterprise with Apache 1.3) to cache the intermediate compiled PHP code.
My benchmarks (7ms+) are after the dramatic speedup provided by the
accelerator. I wouldn't even bother benchmarking this without the
compiler cache, but it is clear that a compiler cache does not prevent
PHP from still having to run the (ableit precompiled) array and function
definition code itself.

Re: [PHP] Persistent PHP web application?
I've done some benchmaring and it is quite fast, specially compared to talking to the DB. Also, phpbeans provides a daemon that can give you the solution you are looking for, I believe.

I personally don't need extra processes and stuff like that but if you really want all that you can take a look at phpbeans. What you are talking about is opcode caching. While it certainly speeds things up, it can be done much faster. When you cache a file that contains a large PHP array definition, all you are caching are the instructions to create that array. On every request these instructions need to be loaded from shared memory and executed in order to recreate the array. This can be quite slow. What we are discussing here are ways to avoid recreating the array on every request which is quite different. -Rasmus -- Adrian Madrid HyperX Inc.

Re: [PHP] Persistent PHP web application?
http://eaccelerator.sourceforge.net/Home Go there, you'll find more about it. In short, Zend hired the lead programmer of MMCache and the project eventually died off. Other people picked it up and developed patches to update it. I believe eAccelerator is the most advanced and stable for me in PHP 5. I'm running it and it's been good to me. Although I recommend taking the optimizer off. Anyway, hope it helped.

Re: [PHP] PHP Accelerator
I rewrote my framework to use some of the new OOP features in PHP5 and haven't had a single segfault yet. Again, my only segfaults came when using MMCache's session handler. Another caveat is that I compile my own PHP MMCache everytime instead of using RPMs and stuff. Anyway, just my 2 cents.

I must say I'm running the latest CVS and using file sessions (Turck's would give you segfaults). I also tried latest CVS and I don't use Turcks cache. Maybe Turck has problems with Objects in PHP5 (because there were the great changes) while normal Non-OO-Scripts are running flawlessly. -- Adrian Madrid HyperX Inc.
