Re: [PHP] run a command on a remote host
Hi Brad, Thanks for your help, I'm trying to run this code to know which user is running my webserver. I think it is the nobody #!/usr/local/bin/php -q HTML BODY bgcolor='#ff' ?php echo PRE; #$output=passthru(rsh rubella ls /tmp/salididta.txt,$vari); $output=system(who am I,$vari); echo salida.$vari; printf(\nPRE%s/PRE\n,$output); ? /BODY /HTML but I only get this salida0 and I don't get the user How can I know the user? so I can give it permisions to run a rsh? I check and I only can do a rsh to that machine if I'm login with my user and the user root, but I don't know the user of the web server. --- Brad Lhotsky [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Don't forget that this will be executed as the user that the webserver is running as. Hopefully that's not root in this case. Check out the docs for rsh, you can specify the username with the -l option. I don't know if that will accomplish what you want. Also, what do you mean by nothing happen. No output to the browser? The command does not execute? What error messages are in your webserver's error_log? I'm not incredibly well versed in rsh, but you couls potentially run into some issues with the -l option too. Check your error_log though, if it doesn't spell out what's wrong to you, it should atleast give some information that someone here might be able to expand on.

Thanks Vail and all! I use it: rsh -l user host command and and I can run it!

Re: [PHP] run a command on a remote host
Don't forget that this will be executed as the user that the webserver is running as. Hopefully that's not root in this case. Check out the docs for rsh, you can specify the username with the -l option. I don't know if that will accomplish what you want. Also, what do you mean by nothing happen. No output to the browser?
