RE: [PHP] Solution to display the results of an exec/system + rsh command

2004-03-18 Thread Frédéric Martin
Hi guys,

With the help of a guy, we found the solution. So for information, this is
what you have to do to succeed such kind of command.
You have to use the same username in your webserver as the name of the
account in the remote machine you're trying to access with rsh.
typically if you want to do this:

$res = exec("rsh x.x.x.x -l TOTO ping x.x.x.x");
echo " $res ";

The webserver user should be TOTO (you can change it in your httpd.conf file
on Linux box)
hope it will help!

i don't have any idea why it's not working and i've never used exec(), but
maybe you'd have better luck with the back tick operator (at least i think
it's an operator)?

$res = `rsh x.x.x.x -l username ping x.x.x.x`;

[PHP] Problem to display the results of an exec + rsh command

2004-03-18 Thread Frédéric Martin
Hi everybody,

I'm trying to execute some commands in a remote host (a cisco router) using
rsh connection and I've problems for displaying the results.

For example if I do this:

$res = exec("rsh x.x.x.x -l username ping x.x.x.x);
echo " $res ";

I cannot display the result of the ping made in the remote host.
any idea to fix that?
thank you in advance for your tips ...

fred
