Hi guys,
just a simple question, how would I go about displaying the last 100 lines
of a log file?
I know that on the command line it's:
tail -n 100 access_log
Is there a PHP function to do this?
Cheers,
Liam

Hi
You need
exec(tail -n 100 access_log,$result);
$result will be an array with the output of the command.

Hi Folks,
Two questions:
1) Initializing a db $var
What's the best way to code $dbvar, which is coming from a database query, given the
new superglobals:
$data = mysql_fetch_array();
$dbvar = stripslashes($data['someFieldName']);
Is there a newer or better way to initialize $dbvar?
2)
It could be what I was typing in the url bar.

2) Let me know where your server is so I can go to

Who owns the file you're trying to read?
Who owns the PHP script being executed?

Well, as described below, the key is read by a root-owned, sudo-gated
shell script which executes a specific remote command. And of course the
arguments, if any, are strictly sanitized by the shell script. So the
worst someone could do is cause the premature execution of that remote
command.
