Just remember you will be running those commands as the web server, which usually have limited access rights. -- William Fong - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: 626.968.6424 x210 | Fax: 626.968.6877 Wireless #: 805.490.7732| Wireless E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: Kevin Traas [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Beau Lebens [EMAIL PROTECTED]; 'Jeremiah Jester' [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 28, 2002 10:38 AM Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] accessing system cmds w/ PHP : Beau, you're such a l33t h4x0r ;-) : : - Original Message - : From: Beau Lebens [EMAIL PROTECTED] : To: 'Jeremiah Jester' [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] : Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2002 5:33 PM : Subject: RE: [PHP-DB] accessing system cmds w/ PHP : : : JJ, : I seem to recall most people saying that the shorthand works best : : $output = `chmod -R 777 *'; : : HTH : : beau : : // -Original Message- : // From: Jeremiah Jester [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] : // Sent: Thursday, 28 February 2002 9:37 AM : // To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] : // Subject: [PHP-DB] accessing system cmds w/ PHP : // : // : // Can anyone tell me how to access linux system commands using : // php.

Re: [PHP-DB] accessing system cmds w/ PHP
