[PHP] Running system commands
Hi all, I was wondering, if anyone can help me with running system commands from within php. Actually I have a script which deletes users from my database (which is of course MySQL), now I want to delete those users from system level also, as they are authenticated users of my OS also. Now, the problem is, that I'm running my MySQL server and web server on different machines. I can do whatever on remote DB server but how to run a system command on another machine. I know, it's possible to run system commands on local server by system(), but what about remote server? Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanx in advance Nitin
Re: [PHP] Running system commands
Thanks for your help, I'v configured ssh, though it's running fine, I'm not able to connect to my server, it says- connect: connection to on port 22 refused. i think this is due to, some firewall. I'll check it out. in the mean time can you clearify what are verbatim commands!!!

Re: [PHP] Running system commands
It was filtering, but now I've opened the port to listen to my machine, which is running my web server (where all php scripts qre running). So, that's not a problem now. I've checked it (SSH) on the terminal, it's working fine with root as well as other users. Now, problem is, for other users it asks for password, which i dont want to surpass. Your idea of running encrypted tunnel to use telnet services is good, but i cann't use it, cause i've blocked that port, and i dont want to open it. Second thing is, yes I'm using system() for command from php and it's not showing any result. May be you r right that, it's just sitting waiting for password. If, you've any idea to deal with it, please let me know. Anyway, thanks a lot for your time and great help.

of course, you can specify the optional argument STR_PAD_LEFT like: $dbranch = str_pad($line->dbranch_no, 6, '', STR_PAD_LEFT); Enjoy, Nitin - Original Message - From: "Chris Grigor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "php" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, September 26, 2003 4:49 PM Subject: [PHP] str_pad This should be quite an easy task for some... say for example $line->dbranch has a value of 3 I know that 3 spaces will be added on to the end of $dbranch $dbranch = str_pad($line->dbranch_no, 6); so the value of $dbranch should look like "3 " Is there anyway to right justify the 3 using str_pad .. example still put the 3 spaces in but at the beginning??? so it looks like " 3" Chris -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Changing users in php script
You can use 'sudoers' for the purpose, that way you'll be able to give just that permission to the user of your choice. then you can connect as that user through 'exec' or 'system' and can execute that comand.

for that u need to connect to your server as the owner of that server process or 'root'. to do this you may want to look at the idea of sudo. but remember, it's only as secure as you make it. you need to know, what exactly are you doing with sudo.

Re: [PHP] Max no of recipients in To field of mail function
It'll definitely put some load on your server, but then it's the best way and loops are made for these purposes. Though, if all your e-mail receivers dont mind seeing their name in a long list or they allow spam mails into their mail boxes, you can use these names directly into to field.

Is this some kind of bug of crypt() function or what else it could be? Scripts are same. Please help as soon as possible. Thanks in advance
