The information is returned via STDOUT. How about piping the output to a file and then checking that file with PHP? -- Regards, Burhan Khalid phplist[at]meidomus[dot]com http://www.meidomus.com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

The information is returned via STDOUT. so try system() instead.

[snip] Umm, use exec() to call the dialing program? [/snip] That works on the surface, but the PPP program returns some vital information about its connection status that is required for use by any subsequent file operations. The information is returned via STDOUT. Thanks! Jay -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Using PPP with PHP
Good afternoon gurus and gurettes! Has any of you had any experience using PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) with PHP? I need to work with it to establish a connection to a remote server on a remote network and was hoping that I could use PHP. Currently I can manually establish I dial-up using PPP over a modem. I would like to automate the process as much as possible. Any help would be grandly appreciated.
